Major Depressive Disorder Market Insights and Future Outlook

Introduction
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is one of the most common and disabling mental health conditions worldwide, affecting mood, cognition, and overall functionality. The disorder is characterized by persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, fatigue, and suicidal ideation in severe cases. With global recognition of mental health as a public health priority, the major depressive disorder market is expanding rapidly, driven by increased diagnosis, wider availability of therapies, and strong pharmaceutical innovation.

The ongoing burden of depression-exacerbated by stress, lifestyle changes, and global crises-has led to a surge in healthcare investments. Governments, healthcare providers, and pharmaceutical companies are prioritizing MDD, aiming to improve treatment outcomes through new drug classes, neuromodulation therapies, and digital health interventions.
