Background: Depression goes by many names: Depression, "the blues," biological depression, major depression or clinical depression. But it all refers to the same thing: feeling sad and depressed for weeks or months on end (not just a passing blue mood). This feeling is most often accompanied by feelings of hopelessness, a lack of energy (or feeling "weighed down"), and taking little or no pleasure in things that gave you joy in the past. The lifetime prevalence of major depressive episode ranges 5 – 17%. Women are more at risk of severe depression. Women are usually affected between the age of 35 and 45 and men over 55.
