Guide To The Major Types Of Depression

Feeling sad every once in a while is a normal experience. Sometimes things happen to make individuals sad, or they feel a sense of stress or dissatisfaction in life from time to time. However, if the sadness happens most of the time, or it happens without apparent rhyme or reason, or it's serious enough to affect someone's daily functioning, they might be suffering from depression. Depression can be treated through psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, and medication. With that said, it's important to get the right diagnosis. There are several types of depression, and each type has its own treatment, though some options may be similar.
