According to the American Psychiatric Association, depression is a common and serious medical illness that negatively impacts how you feel, the way you think and how you act. Fortunately, it is treatable, but it does cause feelings of sadness or loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed. While depression affects approximately 1.5 percent of the United States population ages 18 and older, depression is more common than ever.
Last year, DJ and producer Getter openly talked about his struggles with depression. Earlier today, Getter talks about what has helped him through depression as a music producer. “I made some of the most beautiful songs to help me cope a few months ago. When I'm sad, I listen to them and they remind me that there is a way out.”
