What is Clinical Depression?
Clinical depression, also known as major depressive disorder, is a serious mental health condition marked by prolonged periods of deep sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest in previously enjoyable activities. People with clinical depression often experience difficulty functioning in daily life, and may struggle with fatigue, changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, and suicidal thoughts.
Treatment for clinical depression typically involves a combination of therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes to manage symptoms and improve overall well-being.
