Depression
Depression is one of the most frequent and disabling mental disorders. It is estimated that 5% of the population suffers from depression, but many more will suffer a depressive episode at some point in their lives. There are different types of depression, although the major depression is one of the most common. Reference can also be made to the endogenous depression or the recurrent depression, depending on the causes.
