Understanding Depression In Older Adults

Depression is common among older adults, but it isn’t a normal part of aging. It can affect how you feel, think, and act. While dealing with depression can be difficult, you don’t need to tackle it alone. That’s why it’s important to seek support from family, friends, and health care professionals early on.

If you’re struggling, it’s okay to share your feelings. If you or someone you know is having suicidal thoughts text or dial 9-8-8 to speak to a crisis lifeline worker.
