 Are Your Moods Preventing You From Enjoying Life? 

            Are you one of the millions of American who feel like they’re losing control over their own emotions?  A recent Harvard Medical School study of developed and developing nations finds that the United States has the highest rate of mental health disorders such as depression – and that they are all too frequently undiagnosed. 

            For most people, figuring out the line between “I’ve been moody lately” or “I get tired easily,” “I can’t sleep”, and “I have depression” is difficult.  That’s why the City of Greenbelt is involved in anonymous depression screening.

                     The stigma associated with depression and related disorders have decreased in recent years, but many people still aren’t able to recognize depression in themselves and others,” say Christal Parker Batey, Community Resource Advocate for the City of Greenbelt.  “Depression Screening Day” is an easy first step for anyone who’s concerned about their own mental health or the mental health of someone close to them.”
