Depression - which is still not fully understood by medical science - seems to be a combination of mental and physical problems inextricably bound up with each other. By a combination of therapy and medications, many patients are able to live a normal life. But finding the right combination of medications, and/or the right therapist for each person, can take a long time.

There is help for almost all people who suffer from chronic, long-term depression, but by no means is it as curable as something like bronchitis or ringworm. At least, not yet.
