The analysis concludes that depression continuesas a disease difficult to be recognized and faced by workers and, when diagnoseg, is treated primarily through pharmacotherapy. Psychotherapy, which is recommendedin most cases as a complementary treatment to tje medication, has notreached the required adherence so that is can fulfill its role. Treatment is perceived as something of outstanding value but, workers do not realize the existece of a therapeutic Project, the bonds are fragile and there is little involvement with the Family.
