edupression for depression

You can use edupression if you are currently experiencing a mild to moderate depressive episode and have not had a manic episode in your medical history. In this case, we speak of unipolar depression.

To differentiate: In the case of bipolar depression, manic phases occur alongside depressive episodes as part of bipolar disorder. During such phases, those affected are often overly energetic, hardly need any sleep and tend to overestimate their own abilities.

Under What is depression? you can find out more and assess the severity of your depression in the self-test.
