This project was developed during our social pedagogy studies. It was and continues to be important to us that the topic of depression is addressed and receives more recognition in society. Unfortunately, it is still a taboo subject with many stigmas to overcome. That is why we want to offer a change of perspective, contribute to raising awareness, and give a voice to those affected, their families and friends, and professionals.

​

Our guiding principles on this topic:

Miriam: Family and friends are extremely important, even if it's just about listening and being there.

​

Alina: A diagnosis is not a biography

​

Laura: Communicate instead of judging

​

Regula: We must learn not to act immediately and offer solutions, but simply to be there for the person.

​

Julia: Everyone deservse Help​

​

Bianca: You can't see depression; you have to listen to it, understand it, and acknowledge it.
