A multiple question assessment scale used to provide an indication of depression and serves as a way to evaluate recovery in patients. It is designed for adults and is used to rate the severity of their depression by probing mood, feelings of guilt, suicide ideation, insomnia, agitation or retardation, anxiety, weight loss, and somatic symptoms. It was designed to be administered by a trained professional using a semi-structured interview. Although Hamilton's original scale had 17 items, other versions were developed to include up to 29 items (HRSD-29).(Adapted from Wikipedia) It takes about 20 minutes to complete the interview and score the results. Scoring: * 0-7 Normal * 8-13 Mild * 14-18 Moderate * 19-22 Severe * > or = 23 Very Severe
