Depression Help and Resources

You can also find help for your depression at your local church or community center. Depression help for low income people can often be found through these resources, and oftentimes the counseling is free. Most churches provide counseling for depression as a service to members of their congregation, but won't turn away someone simply because they do not belong to the church.

The support groups typically meet once a week. There you can meet people who are overcoming their depression and draw strength from each other.

Community centers can also help with resources for the causes of some depression, such as food banks, energy assistance, and health care.
