Myth: Getting help for depression doesn’t make it go away any faster.
Fact: Depression is highly treatable, and 80 percent of people who obtain treatment from a mental health professional find relief. Effective treatment usually consists of talking with a therapist about your life and the circumstances that may have caused your depression. Many people also are prescribed an antidepressant medication that treats chemical imbalances in the brain.
