Depression is a serious but common illness that impacts the way you feel, how you think and how you behave.  Rather, the good news is that depression is curable, and in most likelihood it can be treated without medication. Counseling with a qualified psychologist, will empower you with behavior modification techniques to end depression.

Furthermore, it causes you to have a lack of interest in hobbies and activities that you previously enjoyed. Depression leaves you with a feeling of sadness and morose.  In addition, it can result in physical and emotional problems that can affect the way you function in life, whether at work or at home and how you interact with people.

First of all, it is especially relevant to note that some of the common causes of depression are as follows:

Seasonal changes: Change in the weather, and the season results in some individuals feeling depressed

Smoking: Surprisingly smoking is a chicken and egg story, depressed people smoke cigarettes and smoking cigarettes causes more despondency

Thyroid disease: Hypothyroidism, i.e. the reduced production of the thyroid hormone can lead to gloominess, fortunately a quick blood test can rule this out, and a course of medicine from your doctor can relieve these symptoms

Social Media Overload: Too much facebook and other forms of social media can cause depression

Location Depression: Where you live, can be a cause of depression

Sibling / family / relationship problems: Strained relationships with siblings, parents and spouse etc can also lead to depression

 Medication: Certain medication such as birth control pills etc., can result in despondency, any hormone impacting medication can also result in depression
