Depression increasingly looks to researchers and clinicians like, 
say, a psychiatric version of bronchitis or a heart attack. Some 
people come down with a case of it, have it treated (or not), and it 
goes away. But for a great number of patients, it's a chronic 
condition that must be treated when it flares. And after depression's 
acute symptoms subside, many patients need to manage the disease -- 
to continue with some kind of treatment -- to reduce the likelihood 
of experiencing repeated bouts of mental suffering.
