What is Depression

Depression is classified as a mood disorder. It may be described as a feeling of sadness, loss or anger that interferes with a person’s everyday activities. It can affect person’s thoughts, behaviour, motivation feelings and a sense of well being. It can also lead to sadness, difficulty in thinking and concentration, increase or decrease in appetite and sleep cycle is also disturbed. People experiencing depression may have feeling of rejection.

Depression can either be short term or long term. In depression people lose interest in everything and there is a loss of feeling of pleasure in certain activities that usually bring joy to people.

The common causes of depression are:

Family history.

Early childhood trauma.

Brain structure.

Common medical conditions.

 Drug use.

There are two main types of depression:

 Some of the symptoms are:

  2. Loss of interest in most regular activities.

  3. Lack of sleep or sleeping a lot.
