What is major depression?

Answered By Editor


This is the most serious type of depression. Symptoms found in this type of depression are usually severe and serious.

Sometimes, it can be an effect from a particular disturbing incident in your life, or it may develop gradually because of various personal frustrations and life struggles. Some people develop the signs of major depression with no apparent life problems.

Major depression may happen only once due to a major emotional trauma, as a reaction to healing, and will not ever happen again. This is normally what is called a "single episode depression."

Some people are inclined to have habitual depression, with events of depression followed by periods of a number of years without depression, followed by another one, typically in reaction to another distress. This would be continuing depression.

Usually, the healing is similar, but that healing normally is over a longer period for continuing depression.
