If you’re feeling hopeless, sad, and empty for more than two weeks, you probably are suffering from depression. Thankfully, depression is very treatable. There are often places that can help you, regardless of your financial abilities.

Most people associate depression with a weak mind or a negative attitude. Social stigma is causing the sick to continue suffering alone. 

With $80,000,000 lost in loss of productivity and health care for this mental illness, it is important that we remove this social stigma once and for all. Imagine waking up with energy, ready to take on the world. It’s rainy outside but you’re not bothered. A song keeps repeating in your head so you sing out loud as you shower. People would want you around all the time with that kind of joyful energy!
