Are You Depressed?
Life is full
of good times and bad, happiness and sorrow. But if you've been feeling "down" for more than a few weeks or are having difficulty functioning
in daily life, you may be experiencing more than just the "blues." You
may be suffering from a common yet serious medical illness called clinical
depression.
