What is Depression?
Depression is a serious mental health condition that affects a person’s emotions, thoughts, and daily life. It goes beyond temporary sadness and can cause persistent feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness, and a loss of interest in activities once enjoyed. Depression can also lead to physical symptoms such as fatigue, changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, and difficulty concentrating.Â
It may result from a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors. Stressful life events, trauma, and chemical imbalances in the brain can contribute to its development. If left untreated, depression can impact relationships, work performance, and overall well-being. However, with therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, and support from loved ones, many people can manage and overcome depression.
