What is depression?

Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest.

It affects how you feel, think, and behave, and can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems.

Depression is not just a temporary feeling of sadness or a reaction to a difficult situation, but a serious medical condition that requires treatment.

Symptoms can vary from person to person, but may include feelings of hopelessness, low energy, difficulty concentrating, changes in appetite, and thoughts of self-harm or suicide.

Depression can be caused by a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors, and can be treated through therapy, medication, or a combination of both.

It is important to seek help from a mental health professional if you are experiencing symptoms of depression.
