AB  - Depression  is  common,  disabling,  and  often  underrecognized  in  general  medical  practice.  More  than  300  million  people  are  affected  by  depression  worldwide.  Stigma  of  mental  illness  and  other  psychosocial  barriers  such  as  negative  expectations  often  diminish  the  motivation  of  individuals  with  depression  to  seek  care.  Even  when  recognized,  depression  is  often  inadequately  addressed  by  practitioners  who  lack  either  the  time  or  training  to  provide  timely,  effective,  evidence-based  treatment.  Despite  evidence  that  depression  is  quite  treatable,  and  the  widespread  availability  of  evidence-based  assessment  and  treatment  guidelines,  overall  outcomes  remain  poor.
