Abstract
Methods I identified references to remission and relapse of depression during the writing up of the Australian national mental health survey. References to long term prognosis came from my earlier work. A conference question, “What is the clinical implication of your findings?” led me to the Wagner model of chronic disease management.This publication has 23 references indexed in Scilit:
