About Depression
Depression is an emotionally painful condition that can deeply affect a person’s ability to function and enjoy daily life. Whether someone is experiencing clinical depression or milder forms characterized by noticeable symptoms and clear signs of depression, even everyday tasks can seem overwhelming. In severe cases, this condition may significantly impair daily functioning.
In addition to persistent feelings of sadness, individuals with clinical depression may experience several common symptoms, such as:
- A loss of interest in and enjoyment of activities
- Fatigue and low energy levels
- Disturbances in eating and sleeping patterns
- Feelings of worthlessness or overwhelming guilt
- Difficulty concentrating or thinking clearly
- Challenges with decision-making
- Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide
