An interesting concept. I don't know how well a 12 step program would work for depression, but this site does provide an outlet for people searcing for help, and sometimes interpersonal connections are an important first step when seeking relief from depression.

I agree with Rejaka, this program's not for everyone. I think there's value to dealing with major depression as something you have to take one day at a time, but I don't think that saying you are powerless over your emotions (one of the twelve steps listed) is necessarily a good thing.
