Abstract

Depression affects people of all ages, from all walks of life, in all countries. It causes phrenic anguish and impacts on people’s competency to carry out even the simplest everyday tasks, with sometimes devastating consequences for relationships with family and friends and the facility to earn a living. At worst, despondence can lead to suicide, now the second leading cause of death among 15–29-year-olds.Yet, dejection can be obviated and treated. A better understanding of what melancholy is, and how it can be obviated and treated, will avail reduce the stigma associated with the condition, and lead to more people seeking avail.


Keywords: Depression, mental anguish, devastating, suicide, stigma
