Depression used to be a topic that no one discussed.  According to the World Health Organization (WHO):

  • Globally, more than 450 million people of all ages suffer from depression.
  • Depression is the leading cause of ill-health and disability worldwide, and is a major contributor to the overall global burden of disease.
  • More women are affected by depression than men.
  • Treatments are available, but nearly two thirds of people with a known mental disorder never seek help from a mental health professional.  Stigma, discrimination and neglect prevent care and treatment from reaching people with mental disorders says the World Health Organization (WHO).  Where there is neglect, there is little or no understanding.  Where there is no understanding, there is neglect.
  • PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder):  Women have significantly higher rates of PTSD than men.
