Not a substitute for professional help

No two people have exactly the same experience. No single strategy offers a "miracle cure" to banish depression. This site aims to provide balanced and well-researched discussion about a wide range of perspectives on depression. The individual site user should choose what strategies are useful for his or her own circumstances. The suggestions given on this site must not be seen as a substitute for professional help.
