National Depression Week™ 2003

National Depression Week™ is now one of the most successful initiatives in the busy awareness campaign calendar. Support for the campaign grows year on year, reaching an ever widening audience of health professionals, politicians and the general public. Working through a variety of media, including the press, our publications and the internet, we have made real progress in changing the way depression is viewed in the 21st century.

National Depression Week™ 2003 concentrated on one of the most frightening aspects of the illness - depression in young people. Distressingly, 20% of all deaths by young people are by suicide, the large majority of whom are affected by depression. Depression can strike at any age but it is more common in the young.
