Hi,
this is my first post on this forum.
Im sure that I have some kind of
depression, as I suffer from almost all of
the normal symptoms.
My problems seem less serious than others
posted on this forum, so my main concern
is what they might lead to if I dont do
anything.
I would like to get in contact with
someone (anonymous) with the same kind of
problems to share experiences with.

This year, national depression screening
day will be held on oct. 9. Those who
call will get the name and location of a
screening site, where they will be
screened for a range of common emotional
situations that often go undiagnosed and
misunderstood, including depression,
post-traumatic stress disorder,
generalized anxiety disorder and
manic-depression. As part of the program,
attendees will hear an educational
presentation, complete a written
self-assessment and have the opportunity
to talk privately with a mental health
professional.
The program is free and completely
confidential. Nearly 4,000 sites across
the country will participate in this
year's program. The phone lines are open
now. To find a site near you, call the
number set up for annie's mailbox readers
at 1-800-437-1200 (tdd 1-800-697-3800) or
visit the web site at
mentalhealthscreening.Org.
