Depression is a mental health disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in daily activities.
It affects mood, thoughts, and physical well-being, often leading to changes in sleep, appetite, and energy levels.
Depression can range from mild to severe and may result from a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors.
Treatment approaches include psychotherapy, medication, and lifestyle changes. Recognizing and addressing depression is crucial for improving overall mental health and quality of life.
