Depression is a mood disorder that makes people feel “down”; this can manifest itself in a number of ways, such as a constant lack of interest in life or an overwhelming feeling of sadness. Whilst most people feel sad or depressed at times (as it is a normal reaction to some of life’s challenges), when this sadness or disassociation lasts for a long time then it may be classed as depression. Depression can last a variable amount of time – sometimes weeks, sometimes months or even years, and it stops people from enjoying a good quality of life.
Depression is a treatable condition and you can get prescribed medication for this condition; some people however may prefer to try a natural treatment for anxiety or depression. We have information on a range of different natural supplements to reduce the symptoms of depression.
