Depression is a mood disorder that affects how a person feels, thinks, and handles daily activities. There are various forms of depression, such as clinical depression, persistent depressive disorder, bipolar depression, and seasonal affective disorder.

Key signs of depression
Depression symptoms can include a persistent depressed mood, loss of interest in hobbies, overwhelming sadness, difficulty maintaining relationships, and feelings of emptiness. Some people experience situational depression triggered by life events, while others develop persistent depressive disorder with long-term symptoms. Severe cases may lead to suicidal thoughts, highlighting the need for early intervention and professional treatment.
Primary causes of depression
Depression can be caused by a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors. Chemical imbalances in the brain, a family history of mood disorders, chronic stress, trauma, and co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders or bipolar disorder can contribute to its development. Life events like grief, financial struggles, or major transitions can also trigger depressive symptoms.
Treatment options for depression
Depression treatment typically includes a combination of therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and other forms of talk therapy help people develop coping strategies, while antidepressants can regulate mood imbalances. In more severe cases, inpatient treatment may be necessary, but for many, intensive outpatient programs (IOP) provide structured, effective treatment that allows clients to receive additional support while maintaining daily routines.
