Depression: Overview
Ten percent of Americans will experience severe depression sometime during their lives. People who suffer from depression are often reluctant to admit their condition to friends and family. Additionally, these same friends and family members may not recognize the severity of the problem. For instance, your loved one may become angry with you for not "cheering up." He or she does not understand that your brain may function differently than normal and no matter how hard you try, you simply cannot "cheer up." It is important to seek professional counseling and guidance from a medical doctor. There are many prescription medications available that can turn your life around. Unfortunately, these drugs can have severe side effects, and some are more effective than others.
