Depression


Depression is one of the most common mental disorders in the U.S. It causes symptoms that affect how you feel, think, and handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working. Often depression is caused by a combination of biological, psychological and sociocultural factors. Depression can be treated; the earlier one seeks treatment for depression, the more effective the treatment.

Symptoms of depression can include:

  • Aches or pains, headaches, cramps, or digestive problems without a clear physical cause and/or that do not ease even with treatment
  • Appetite and/or weight changes
  • Decreased energy or fatigue
  • Difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions
  • Difficulty sleeping, early-morning awakening, or oversleeping
  • Discomfort with eating around other people
  • Feeling restless or having trouble sitting still
  • Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness
  • Feelings of hopelessness
  • Irritability
  • Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies
  • Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood
  • Thoughts of death or suicide, or suicide attempts
