Depression

Depression is a mood disorder characterized by low mood and energy levels, as well as having difficulty or an inability to perform activities. To be considered clinically depressed, patients must exhibit several symptoms of depression for at least two weeks at a time. When left untreated, depression can develop into a more severe mental illness which may involve the risk of suicide or other forms of self-harm.
