Five signs of depression to look out for and how to help a loved one

Depression can be a scary thing to go through, especially alone. While we all can have good days and bad days, becoming depressed can leave you feeling isolated, as you feel no one will understand what you're going through.

But that couldn't be further from the truth, as charities like Samaritans want you to know there is always help for anyone going through depression. July is Samaritans' Talk To Us Month and 24th July is Samaritans' Awareness Day, created to remind everyone that their Volunteers are there to take calls 24/7.

Those who are suffering depression may not be aware of what they're going through and it can become serious if ignored. Symptoms of depression can vary and not all are immediately obvious to the people suffering from them or to their loved ones.
