Overview
Depression generally signifies a lowering or reduction of some kind, for example in the context of mood, economy, or functionality: is a mental disorder characterized by at least two weeks of low mood presenting in most situations.[1] It is often accompanied by low self-esteem, loss of interest, low energy, and pain without a clear cause.[1] People may also occasionally have false beliefs or see or hear things that others cannot.[1] Some people have periods of depression separated by years in which they are normal while others nearly always have symptoms present.[3] Major depressive disorder can negatively affect a person's personal, work, or school life, as well as sleeping, eating habits, and general health.[1][3] Between 2–7% of adults with major depression die by suicide,[2] and up to 60% of people who die by suicide had depression or another mood disorder.[6]
