Dr. Heather Luing joins Dr. Michael Koren to talk about depression. They discuss what it can feel like, why December is associated with a spike in depression cases, and what's going on inside the body and brain that makes this disorder so challenging. The duo of doctors also explore new and emerging medications in the depression field, including several that target completely new pathways in the brain and may provide relief for people who have not found help with older medications. Dr. Luing also talks about the importance of talk therapy.
