Depression affects people of all ages, from all walks of life, in all countries. It impacts people\u2019s ability to carry out even the simplest everyday tasks, with sometimes devastating consequences for relationships with family and friends. In the worst case, \u00a0depression can lead to suicidal thoughts as it is the second leading cause of death among 15-29-year-olds.<\/p>\n

Depression is often an accompanying condition to other illnesses that in general worsen the quality of life or cause\u00a0desperation and a feeling of meaninglessness.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, depression can be prevented and treated. The most important step is reaching a better understanding of what depression is which will help reduce the stigma associated with the condition.<\/p>\n
