Major Depressive Disorder Overview

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), also referred to as clinical depression, is a significant medical condition that can affect many areas of your life. It impacts mood and behavior as well as various physical functions, such as appetite and sleep. The exact cause of MDD isn't known. However, there are several factors that can increase the risk of developing the condition. Symptoms must occur for a period of 2 or more weeks and at least one symptom is either depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure. MDD is often treated with medication and psychotherapy. Some lifestyle adjustments can also help ease certain symptoms.
