Depression

Depression is a common yet serious mood disorder that affects how you feel, think, and function in your daily life. It is more than just feeling sad; it can involve changes in brain chemistry and presents differently for each individual. 

 

Several factors can trigger depression, including life changes, stress, trauma, certain medical conditions, or a family history of the disorder. Regardless of the cause, depression is a real condition, and it is treatable. 

 

Common symptoms of depression may include: 

• Persistent sadness, emptiness, or anxiety 

• Feelings of hopelessness, helplessness, or worthlessness 

• Irritability or low energy 

• Physical aches and pains 

• Changes in sleep patterns or appetite 

• Loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable
