Depression

A state of feeling sad and dispirited, most likely to occur at those stages of the life of emotional upheaval and tumult, such as adolescence, during pregnancy, and after birth, at menopause, during personal disappointment or bereavement. Relatively mild depression in response to adverse circumstances is normal and eventually passes. Pathological depression is characterized by overwhelming feelings of black despair with the future looking bleak, even hopeless. A depressed person may be constantly tired, have little appetite, suffer from inertia, insomnia, and loss of libido. Suicidal thoughts and attempts are common. In such cases, the person should see a doctor who may prescribe anti-depressant drugs and psychiatric counseling. Loving, reassuring care from family and friends can be a great help.
