Depression is a mental health disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyed. It can also cause physical symptoms such as fatigue, sleep disturbances, and changes in appetite or weight. Depression can be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and psychological factors, and can be diagnosed and treated by a mental health professional. Treatment options include therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes such as exercise, healthy diet, and stress reduction. With proper treatment, most people with depression can recover and lead fulfilling lives.
Some common symptoms include but may not be limited to:
If depression symptoms are severe, persistent, or interfering with daily functioning, seeking medical attention is important to receive proper diagnosis and treatment.
If thoughts of suicide or self-harm are present, immediate medical attention should be sought, as depression is a leading cause of suicide.
Depression can significantly impair quality of life, affecting relationships, work, and personal fulfillment. Seeking treatment can help improve symptoms and restore quality of life.
