Depression is one of the most common mental health conditions in the United States. Nationally, 1 in 5 adults experience a depressive episode each year — and New Hampshire is no exception.
According to SAMHSA data, approximately 21.5% of NH adults reported experiencing a major depressive episode in the past year. Among young adults ages 18–25, that number climbs even higher to 29.3%. New Hampshire also faces a shortage of mental health providers, meaning many residents go untreated for months or years.
These aren’t just statistics — they represent families in Salem, Derry, Nashua, Manchester, and across the region who need access to compassionate, evidence-based treatment for depression.

Understand that depression is a medical condition, not laziness or a character flaw. It involves changes in brain chemistry that affect mood, energy, and motivation. Learning this helps you respond with empathy rather than frustration when they can’t “just snap out of it.”
Many people with depression feel ashamed or believe they should be able to handle it alone. Normalize seeking professional help by talking openly about mental health. Share that treatment works — most people with depression improve significantly with the right combination of therapy and support.
Watch for changes in sleep, appetite, social withdrawal, loss of interest in activities, persistent sadness, or talk of feeling hopeless. Take any mention of suicide seriously — ask directly and listen without judgment.
Depression makes everyday tasks feel overwhelming. Offer to help with specific things: “Can I drive you to your appointment?” or “I’ll call Trailhead with you right now.” Concrete offers are more helpful than “Let me know if you need anything.”
Supporting someone with depression can be emotionally exhausting. Consider therapy for yourself, set healthy boundaries, and maintain your own routines. You can’t pour from an empty cup.
Our family support program is open to all family members 18+, past and present clients. We offer individual family therapy sessions and monthly Zoom education groups covering depression awareness, communication strategies, and building a supportive home environment.
