FREE DEPRESSION SCREENINGS

Pretty much every one's had a case of the blues. But depression is something much more overwhelming. It's a disease that can lead to death. Yet it's still tough for families to talk about it.

Thursday, October 11th is National Depression Screening Day and in conjunction with that sites, nationwide will offer anonymous, free, in-person and online mental health screenings. They'll address: depression
bipolar disorder
generalized anxiety disorder
post traumatic disorder

BTW: a study from Harvard Medical School finds identifying and treating workplace depression leads to better job retention, decreased absenteeism and increased productivity .. which leads me to share this quote .. and dang, I can't remember where I got it from ..
"When work is organized in a way that there is some stress but not too much and that people remain healthy, that is also beneficial for the company."
