Some people believe that depression is trivial or not a genuine health problem, it's actually a real condition that affects around one in 10 people over the course of their lives. It impacts people of all genders and ages – including children. But what is not often spoken about, is how it is more prevalent in immigrants and ethnic minorities.
On part 2 of our discussion on depression, we want to focus on the effect that being an immigrant and ethnic minority can have on depression.
