00:00 Okay, so let's wrap up this video. 00:03 Symptoms of depression must be present most of the day, nearly every day, for at least 2 weeks before a real diagnosis of depression. 00:11 Risk of suicide should be assessed in patients experiencing depression. 00:15 Treatment modalities for depression include pharmacotherapy, depression-specific psychotherapy, ECT, or vagus nerve stimulation. 00:24 Antidepressants are a group of medications that we use to lessen the symptoms of depression and patients taking antidepressants should be observed closely for suicidality, worsening mood, or changes in behavior. 00:38 Hey, thank you for watching our video today and again, I just want to encourage you. 00:43 There's resources out there that can help. Don't hesitate to take advantage.
