Major depressive disorder is a serious psychiatric illness affecting approximately 15% of the population. It is also the leading cause of morbidity in the industrial world. Because it is so widespread, people suffering from depression seek help from a wide variety of clinicians, including: family doctors, pediatricians, gynecologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and other therapists. In this OAPL pocket volume, Drs. Stephen Strakowski and Erik Nelson provide practitioners with practical and succinct descriptions of this illness and its management for clinicians without significant experience treating depressive disorders.
