Depression....

Depression is a very common situation with people.  It is different from sadness and grief, which are the right way to respond to negative experiences.  Depression lasts for 2 weeks or more.  It is characterized by a loss of interest in what you used to love, there can be a disruption in sleep and eating, with feelings of despair and worthlessness.  It has a continuing influence  and can be unrelenting, unable to find positivity.  The depressed brain shows an over active amygdalae, decreased activity in the prefrontal cortex, sensory processing issues in the thalamus,  And a reduction in dopamine.  If the depression is on going it can create damage in the brain.
