Depression is not just a temporary change of mood or a sign of weakness. This is a serious medical problem with many emotional, physical and behavioral symptoms.
Many are ashamed or afraid to ask for help. Others ignore their symptoms and end up suffering in silence.

People with depression often have such thoughts because of the feeling of guilt they are experiencing that is caused by the illness. Depression is a real health problem for which help is available, but you must be aware of it and ask for help.
