This session will be repeated twice a day from 12-12:50 p.m. and 1-1:50 p.m. to accommodate employee lunch schedules.
Individuals suffering from depression often feel distant from friends and loved ones and can find it difficult to perform to their maximum productivity in the workplace. They can often have high rates of absenteeism or be unfocused. The facilitator will encourage participants to shatter popular myths and misconceptions about depression and increase understanding of the causes, triggers, and symptoms of depressive illness.
