What Is Major Depressive Disorder?
Major Depressive Disorder, commonly referred to as clinical depression, is more than just feeling down. It is a mental health condition characterized by a persistent depressed mood or loss of interest in daily activities for an extended period—typically lasting two weeks or more.
Ongoing sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness
Fatigue or lack of energy
Sleep disturbances (insomnia or oversleeping)
Loss of interest in hobbies or previously enjoyable activities
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
Thoughts of death or suicide
Changes in appetite or weight
Feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt
If left untreated, MDD can significantly affect an individual’s work, relationships, and quality of life. But with the right support and treatment plan, recovery is possible.
