In psychology, mood or emotional situation that is marked by sadness, inactivity, and a reduced ability to enjoy life. A person who is depressed usually having one or more of the following symptoms: feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or pessimism; lowered self-esteem and heightened self-depreciation; a decrease or loss of ability to enjoy daily life; reduced energy and vitality; slowness of thought or action; loss of appetite; and disturbed sleep or insomnia. Depression differs from simple grief, bereavement, or mourning, which are appropriate emotional responses to the loss of loved persons or objects. Where there are clear grounds for a person’s unhappiness, depression is considered to be present if the depressed mood is disproportionately long or severe vis-a-vis the precipitating event. When a person experiences alternating states of depression and mania, he is believed to suffer from a manic-depressive psychosis.
