You are not alone.

The world health organization estimates that about 121 million people worldwide have some form of depression, although less than 25% have access to effective treatment.  About 14.8 million adult Americans experience clinical depression in any given year.  Women are more likely to have major depression than men.  And people over the age of 65 commit suicide at a higher rate than the national average.  (Source: http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/how-many-people-experience-depression)

Numbers are numbers.  You've heard it all before.  But have you really thought about it?

I promise, you are NOT alone!
