Depression is a medical pathological condition that may affect
every person,
without differentiating age, race, gender, background, or
socioeconomic status. It
affects how you feel,
the way you think
and how you act.
It can start with
long periods of sadness,
or absence of interest in daily activities such as studying,
working, or sharing time with family and friends. Simple tasks like
cleaning, cooking, waking up in the morning, or taking a shower, can
become more difficult, and the lack of
energy may turn deeper. The
excessive regret
about the past, the worry about the
future, the lack of motivation to
face challenges in the future, or the
feeling of being unable to continue,
generate in the person the thought that dying is the better option.
