Spotted two typos (though instead of thought) in the last two sentences of section 2.2.

"called postpartum depression, and is though to be the result of hormonal changes" should become "called postpartum depression, and is thought to be the result of hormonal changes"

"associated with seasonal changes in sunlight, is though to be the result of decreased sunlight" should become "associated with seasonal changes in sunlight, is thought to be the result of decreased sunlight" Nazorus (talk) 20:02, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Confirmed and fixed. TylerDurden8823 (talk) 20:16, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Should Avolition be mentioned here? Benjamin (talk) 10:57, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Other genes that have been linked to a GxE interaction include CRHR1, FKBP5 and BDNF"

should be changed into

"Other genes that have been linked to a gene-environment interaction include CRHR1, FKBP5 and BDNF"

to eliminate jargon and to make it more understandable to laypeople. Quidquidlatetadparebit (talk) 19:09, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done

I have five weeks to spend working on my honors english product, and in that time I am not going to be able to establish an audience for our website. We are planning on keeping track of how many visitors we get to impress out english teacher, by showing her how many people we help. It would be insanely appreciated to hyperlink our website somewhere where it would fit. Please consider our request. Dont kill urself (talk) 19:44, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: I'm sorry, this amounts to advertising for your site, and Wikipedia is not for advertising or other types of promotion, even if it's for a good cause. You should consider going elsewhere for this. Anon126 (notify me of responses! / talk / contribs) 20:08, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am part of an editing party attempting to incorporate Cochrane Reviews into Wikipedia health content. Here is some content I recommend for inclusion in this article under Management:

"Collaborative Care for Depression and Anxiety Collaborative care provides a patient with a number of health professionals to work with to manage their symptoms. It may involve a medical doctor, a case manager and a mental health specialist. A 2012 Cochrane Review of 79 randomized controlled trials that included 24,308 patients worldwide found that compared to routine care, collaborative care is better than routine care in improving symptoms of depression and anxiety for up to two years. The review also found that patients under collaborative care increased the number of patients who used medication as per current guidelines and may improve quality of life related to mental health."^[1] Mcbrarian (talk) 18:23, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be WP:UNDUE to give this more than a sentence, something like, "There is evidence that collaborative care by a team of health care practitioners produces better results than routine single-practitioner care," with the Cochrane review cited as source. Also I feel that I should point out that your passage contains several grammatical errors. Looie496 (talk) 17:11, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
