This information is free. There are no strings. I wrote it for my patients, but over a decade, people from all over the world have been here.
Start with these two pages.
: mid- Mood Spectrum depression

You can also use the Table of Contents or the Search spyglass, up there to your right, to tour over 250 pages of information. I hope you’ll find something useful here. (If your inner skeptic is saying “who is this guy and why’s he doing this?” , that’s good. See About This Site above.)
