ABSTRACT
This cross-sectional cohort study describes older patients' perceptions about depression and characteristics associated with acceptance of treatments. The majority of the 109 respondents consider depression as disease, which should be treated. Many patients cited affordability as an obstacle and considered self-treatment options including alcohol intake for depression control.
