Depression remains rampant, misunderstood, and stigmatized. For decades, the disease model of depression has dominated discussion of what depression is and what should be done about it. Here, we take a more balanced view of depression and strive to bring this topic out of the dark. We are devoted to expanding the conversation by linking up people who currently suffer from depression, people who have overcome depression, and the friends and family who care about people who suffer from depression. Please join me in helping to start a better, richer national conversation about depression.
