The Samaritans say listening can help depression in print via The Leo Burnett Group Thailand

Over 1.5 million Thais are suffering from depressive disorder, and the number is increasing steadily. People suffering from depression are at risk to become suicidal and prescribed medications might no longer be enough for people suffering from depressive disorder. The best way to treat people suffering from depression is quite simply, just listening to them with understanding.

Consequently, The Leo Burnett Group and Samaritans Thailand created a campaign to raise awareness among family or friends of patients who have been previously diagnosed with depression to be sympathetic towards them, and recommend them to use Antidepressants as treatment in determination of decreasing suicide rates and truly eliminate clinical depression.
