Abstract: Identifying the symptoms of a depressive disorder can help potential sufferers seek professional help, increasing their chances of recovery. This article presents the operationalization of systems and tools to systematize the analysis process using data from depression-related communities within Facebook. We discuss how we can utilize the data to understand details about depression and the discourse surrounding the disorder through textual analysis using LIWC. The results show a low correlation between textual analysis and the features of social media interaction. This study, through a systematic use of data collection and analysis tools, aims to provide explanatory insights into messages discussing the topic of depression.
