Depression
Everyone gets “the blues” now and then. It’s a part of our busy, complicated lives. But when there is little joy or pleasure in your life, there may be a more serious problem. A depressed mood that stays around for a while, without let-up, can change the way a person thinks and feels. Doctors call this "clinical depression."

Being "down in the dumps" over a period of time is not normal and a person who feels this way needs medical attention. For most people, depression can be treated successfully using several kinds of therapies including "talk" therapies, drugs, and other methods of treatment. Depression is a medical condition and there is no reason to suffer because many treatment options are available today.
