• Substantial evidence from neuroscience, genetics, and clinical investigation shows that depressive illnesses are disorders of the brain.
• Recent research shows that certain types of short-term psychotherapy, particularly cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), can help relieve depression in children and adolescents.
• Although available therapies alleviate symptoms in over 80 percent of those treated, less than half of people with depression get the help they need.
• Genetics research indicates that risk for depression results from the influence of multiple genes acting together with environmental or other nongenetic factors.
• Twenty to 40 percent of adolescents with major depression go on to reveal bipolar disorder within five years after the onset of depression.
