It was predicted that by 2020, depression would be the world's second most serious illness. It reached that goal earlier. 'Depression' is a greatly misunderstood and misused term. We often misdiagnose what I call JU as depression. JU being Justifiable Unhappiness. We're not actually meant to be happy all the time. We end a relationship, lose a job, an adult child leaves home.... we are meant to feel a bit sad and unhappy. I work with people in all stages of unhappiness and depression to help them to reclaim their joy. And no. I am NOT, absolutely NOT anti-medication. Some medication can be life saving. Much of it is over-prescribed in the name of 'evidence-based medicine' when the people prescribing it, have no evidence other than that provided by the vested interests of the reps from the drug companies.

Ruth Schmidt Neven Phd
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist and Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist
Depression needs to be carefully assessed with respect to identifying the difference between longstanding clinical depression and reactive depression arising from particular stressful and disturbing events. In the former, a risk assessment is part of my approach regarding suicidal ideation and the need to work collaboratively with other professionals. In both types of depression I place importance on the impact of early history and traumatic events
