When You Suspect You Have Depression - Interactive Online Test
It's not surprising that most doctors and psychologists are wary of clients' self testing for problems such as depression. Not only is a simple "tick the box" test inadequate for diagnosis simply because other factors must also be investigated, but also because high or low scores (especially in the extremes) can indicate problems altogether different from depression.
Depression in Families
One of the worst aspects of depression is the tendency to withdraw and to be "unreachable" by the very people who want to help, or can help! There's a cultural tendency to avoid "interfering" and so family and friends might avoid making suggestions (or even demands) on the basis that the person will "come right". Or alternatively the depressed person might be assailed with well-meaning but pointless advice to "pull up his/her socks" or "look on the bright side" or whatever.
Quick Tips for Overcoming Even Serious Depression
