There is hope for those who are depressed. Depression, for most, is very treatable. About 90 percent of those who receive treatment will experience a great deal of improvement. Unfortunately, the fact is that most individuals will not recognize that they are depressed. Or if they do realize it, they will often go untreated for fear of reactions from friends and family. Left untreated, millions will experience problems in day to day life and their jobs and relationships often suffer. In Vance Larson's course Living With Depression participants will learn to recognize the severity of this illness and understand the fundamentals of depression.
