Am I Depressed?

The Center • A Place of HOPE is recognized as Top 10 Facility in the U.S. for the treatment of depression. We specialize in diagnosing and caring for those suffering from depression. We also specialize in treating those with co-occurring issues with their depression-like anxiety, substance abuse, an eating disorder, trauma, and other issues.

The following are all depression indicators. This is not a scientific tool, but rather a way for you to identify contributing conditions in your life. Answer all the questions below thoughtfully to yourself with a yes or no answer.

The more of these questions which you answer yes indicates your level of probable depression. While a low probability does not mean that treatment might not be helpful, a higher score doesn’t necessarily mean formal treatment is required. But the higher the score, the greater the likelihood a formal treatment program may be helpful.
