What is depression?

Depression is a serious mental disorder characterized by a prolonged period of low mood, loss of interest in favorite activities, changes in energy balance, and a decreased sense of satisfaction with life. It affects overall physical and emotional well-being, the ability to function in daily life, and the quality of interpersonal relationships.

Depression can have different degrees of severity, and without timely treatment, it can become chronic and negatively impact the quality of life.

Distinguishing between depression as a symptom and depression as a standalone condition is usually based on the duration, frequency, severity of symptoms, and their impact on daily life.
