Living with Depression

More about the book

The book highlights the alarming rise of depressive illnesses among adults and teenagers in the UK, with estimates suggesting a ten-fold increase over the past seventy years. It warns that if this trend continues, nearly the entire population could be affected by 2100, and depression may become the leading global health issue by 2030. Despite the severity of the situation, funding for research remains disproportionately low, with many individuals not seeking necessary medical or psychiatric help.
