Summary

Investigators are doing this study to examine if a new personalized education program for patients with mood disorders (depression and bipolar disorders) will help them take their medications as prescribed by doctors. Investigators will teach patients about how, when and why it is important for them to take their medications as prescribed. Also, investigators will ask patients why they do not take medications as prescribed. Furthermore, investigators will examine whether our education program might save money if it prevents problems related to not taking medication.
