Depression is a very common and yet, often misunderstood health condition. Unlike a normal degree of grief or sadness caused by difficult circumstances or loss in life, depression can make you feel excessively helpless, hopeless, and worthless for a prolonged period. Such intense sadness or “clinical depression” needs to be recognized and treated. It is neither something that you need to be ashamed of, nor a low mood that you can talk yourself out of. Effective treatment can help people with depression feel better and enjoy a normal life.
