WebMD is putting together a segment on our site called Depression TV, which will be a talk radio-type format where a DJ provides a member question to an expert on Depression, and that expert or experts answer.

If you have questions about depression that you'd like to submit for consideration, please send them to exchangemanagement@webmd.net with the subject line "Depression TV", and be sure to include your WebMD member screen name. We will gather all of our member's questions and submit them to the Depression TV folks.

Below is a list of some of the topics for which we're looking for questions, but your question does not have to adhere to these topics. It can be unique.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Take care,

Andie and the WebMD Health Exchange Staff
