Are you feeling hopeless, isolated and not your usual self?

Do you ever feel…

• worthless

• guilty

• helpless & hopeless

• tearful

• a lack of motivation

• unfulfilled

If you have had any variation of these thoughts and don’t feel like your usual self, chances are you may be suffering from depression. Clinical depression is more than life’s “ups” and “downs.”

Clinical depression is a “whole-body” illness that affects your mood, thoughts, body and behavior. Without treatment, symptoms can last for weeks, months or years. Appropriate treatment, however, can help most people who have clinical depression.

Black Americans are over-represented in populations that are particularly at risk for mental illness.

Psychotherapy can help teach better ways of handling problems by talking with a trained mental health professional. Therapy can be effective in treating clinical depression, especially depression that is less severe.
