Abstract in brief

  • The study found that from 2015 to 2019, depression rates increased across the US, especially among adolescents and young adults, with nearly 1 in 10 Americans experiencing major depression in 2020.
  • Depression was most common among young people aged 12-17 and 18-25, and the rates increased rapidly in these groups, but did not change much among adults aged 35 and older.
  • Despite the rise in depression, help-seeking behaviors remained low, highlighting the urgent need for public health efforts that focus on prevention and intervention to address the mental health crisis.]
