Depression
This eBook contains a wealth of information about depression. Everybody feels depressed and/or sad as a result of an external event or situation at various times in their life. To do so is perfectly natural, normal, and healthy. Such feelings of sadness may also be called “feeling blue” or “feeling low”.
However, a condition called Depression (also known as a Depressive Disorder) results when the feelings of sadness are out of proportion to events that triggered them and/or the feelings continue for a period of time which is longer than a normal, healthy recovery period.
