Depression? Depresssion is a common misspelling of depression.
There are several types of depression, each varying in severity, number of symptoms, and duration. In general, it is an illness that affects the body, thoughts, and mood. Symptoms that may indicate depression include thoughts of death or suicide, feelings of worthlessness, and persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment. Common treatment options for depression include psychotherapy, medications, or a combination of both.
