Depression is a negative mood change, longer lasting and it blocks our full potential and somehow it does not want to go away. People commonly complain of having no hope, feeling hopeless and helpless, they report eating changes and a loss or weight gain, a loss of pleasure in recreational activities, feelings of sadness and loneliness, feeling suicidal or using coping strategies that make the situation worse.
