Summary
A study suggests confiding in others is one of the best ways to stave off depression, while daytime napping and spending lots of time watching television appear to increase the risk of developing the condition.In the United States, around 17.3 million adults had at least one major depressive episode in 2017, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) say depression is a leading cause of disability, and estimate more than 264 million people suffer from the condition.Therefore, a major priority is to identify environmental and lifestyle factors that people can change to reduce their risk of developing the condition.Now, researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston have become the latest team to attempt this.
