Overview

Clinical depression is a psychiatric disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, loss of interest in activities, difficulty in concentrating, and a range of physical symptoms. It affects both physical and mental health, impacting people's ability to function in their daily lives. It is estimated that up to 16.2 million American adults experience depression each year. Treatment of clinical depression usually involves psychotherapy, medications, or a combination of both. Antidepressants and other medications can be used to reduce symptoms and improve mood.
