Depression: with Michael R. Lyles, M.D

Depression is a common illness worldwide, with more than 264 million people affected, according to a WHO Study. When left unmanaged, depression can become a serious health condition causing the affected person to suffer greatly and function poorly at work, at school, and in the family.

At its worst, depression can lead to suicide.

In this episode of the TIME with Fred Podcast, I discuss this all-important topic with my special guest, Dr. Michael Lyles.

Dr. Michael Lyles is a board-certified Psychiatrist by The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. His major areas of clinical activity are mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and ADHD. 

He is a consultant to a variety of community organizations ranging from religious organizations to internet sites to professional athletics such as The Atlanta Hawks. He is committed to raising the standard of care in the community by teaching gatekeepers such as clergy and primary care doctors, along with lay groups.

He has published over 60 publications and videos and serves on the speaking and advisory boards for several pharmaceutical companies.
