Interviewer instructions
This question serves to identify individuals with a diagnosed case of depression (mood disorder or anxiety). Although depression is common, it often goes undetected because it may be attributed to a person’s physical, social or economic difficulties. If left untreated, it can lead to a poor quality of life and even suicide. Treatments for depression can
include medication and counselling.
