Mental Health · Maine · Free

National Alliance on Mental Illness Maine affiliate. Education, support, advocacy. Useful for seniors after the loss of a spouse, sibling, or close friend — bereavement-related depression is common and treatable.

Depression in seniors often shows up as physical complaints, appetite changes, sleep problems, or memory issues — not sadness. Free of charge — no eligibility paperwork required to call or browse.
