In 80 to 90 percent of cases, “people with depression eventually respond well to treatment,” according to the American Psychiatric Association.
Then why does America still have one of the highest rates of depression in the world—second only to Ukraine, based on World Health Organization data?
Do lifestyle choices, like diet, exercise, and social contact influence mental health, or is it “all in the mind”?
Do people “choose depression” through their lifestyles or their mindsets?

Dr. Jingduan Yang compares the myriad ideas on treating depression to blind-folded people groping at an elephant—each focused on a specific aspect, yet blind to the totality of the problem.
