What is Depression?
Clinical depression, often referred to as major depressive disorder, is a significant and enduring mental health challenge that is a serious, persistent mental health condition characterized by prolonged and severe feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a disconnection from the joys of life.
Types of Depression
Depression is a common but serious mood disorder that can have a wide range of symptoms that affect people differently. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, there are several different types of depression including:
Major depression:
Includes symptoms like depressed mood or loss of interest lasting at least 2 weeks, interfering with daily life.
Persistent depressive disorder (Dysthymia):
Features less severe depression symptoms, but are long-lasting, often persisting for at least 2 years.
Perinatal depression:
Occurs during or after pregnancy; prenatal depression starts during pregnancy, while postpartum depression begins after the baby is born.
Seasonal affective disorder:
Depression that follows seasonal patterns, typically starting in late fall and early winter, and improving in spring and summer.
