I agree with you, it's impossible to read this..

I understood what it said straight away, and do think that it's a lovely execution. I do think it would have been far more effective if it concentrated on the positive impact that their service has on people. Rather than stating "depressed" it could have said something about the solution or helping people.

Depressed people play with the phone cord? I think it's rather the sign of being uptight. But... what the hell... I guess everyone with a problem is tensed while talking on the phone.

great work imo, i instantly knew from the thumbnail what it was, i dont see any problems in scaling, i think bigger letters would've decrease the effect of phone cord...

Old idea

something's bothering me with the execution. the idea is nothing new either. and why is the copy so small? was it meant as a poster? billboard (i hope not)... print? it just looks unfinished, or not very well thought-of.

thing is a person who is depressed, doesn't realize he's depressed and is in need of help. nor does he realize that someone can help. sorry but this does not work.

depression should be what you get from the message – not the word written there.

I think it is an okay idea, but a phone by itself seems pointless if the number to call is really small. Interesting design of the cord though to make the word depression. Not exactly a direct link towards suicide, but close enough I guess.
