The state-based ongoing, random-digit–dialed mobile phone and landline behavioral risk factor surveillance system survey data for 2020, including data for US adults among all 50 US states, including the participating US territories and the District of Columbia , were analyzed by the CDC. The participants were asked whether they had been diagnosed by a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or a nurse, with depressive disorders such as depression and dysthymia.
Results and discussion In total, 99% responded to the BFRSS survey question on depression.

The states where depression was most prevalent included West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Alabama, Vermont, Washington, Louisiana, Montana, and Missouri.
