Depression is an illness that can affect anyone, regardless of age, ethnic background, socioeconomic status, or gender. This illness involves the body, mood, and thoughts. It is not the same as a passing blue mood, nor is it a sign of weakness or a condition that can simply be willed away. Some symptoms of depression include restlessness and irritability; feelings of guilt, worthlessness, and helplessness; and persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment. Several factors can increase a person's chances of depression, such as medications, a family history of the illness, and stress.
