Recognising Depression

	For each individual the cause of depression is likely to be multi-factorial because of a complex interaction between biological, psychological and social stressors. Please click here to see all the warning signs.

If you experience, or someone you know experiences at least 4 of these symptoms over a period of weeks, you or they should seek professional advice, usually from your GP.

The NHS has more information or you can call NHS direct on 0845 4647. Alternatively you can visit our HELP NOW page where the mental health charities can all offer information and support.

Our booklet “Depression: fancy a chat?” gives more information about depression in a fun and informative way and is free to either download or request from the office.
