Welcome
National Depression Week 2005

Welcome to Depression Alliance's ePolitix Stakeholder site.
- Depression affects 1 in 5 people at some point in their lives.
- Depression will be second only to heart disease as a health burden in the world by 2020.
- 75% of all suicides are committed by people with depression
We believe that depression is the most common illness in Britain.
