Depression affects people in different ways and manifests as a combination of emotional, cognitive and physical symptomps. 300 million people worldwide are estimated to live with depression, and H. Lundbeck A/S wants to raise awareness about how these symptoms can feel.
On the page 'Rethink Depression' people can follow the life of the main character Emily navigating through everyday scenarious, and in that way connect and learn about the symptoms in order to feel less lonely with their diagnosis.

↑ Emily facing her depression.








"
Emily knows there’s no
magic cure for depression,
but talking openly about her symptoms helps lift some of
its weight off her shoulders.
With the support of her doctor, Emily’s depression feels manageable, instead of overwhelming."
