Google Partners with NAMI to Shed Light on Clinical Depression

Aug 24, 2017

NAMI believes that awareness of depression can help empower, educate and enable quicker access to treatment. That's why we partnered with Google to ensure that their new "Check if You’re Clinically Depressed" feature is accurate and useful.

Now when you search for "clinical depression" on Google (on mobile), you'll see a Knowledge Panel that will give you the option to tap “Check if You’re Clinically Depressed”, which will bring you to PHQ-9, a clinically validated screening questionnaire to test what your likely level of depression may be.
