Depression is a prevalent mood disorder characterized by prolonged feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in daily activities. It’s more than just a fleeting blue mood; it can impact every aspect of a person’s life, from how they think and behave to how they function. People with depression might find it challenging to perform day-to-day tasks, and in some instances, they may feel as if life isn’t worth living.
Depression arises from a mix of factors. These can encompass genetic predisposition, traumatic life events, brain chemistry imbalances, health conditions, and certain medications. Environmental triggers, such as significant loss or high stress, and inherent personality traits can also play a role in the onset of depression.
