Depression comes in various forms, each with its own distinct characteristics. Let’s explore the differences between clinical depression, situational depression, and mild depression.
Clinical depression is an extremely severe condition that has a profound impact on daily life. It often involves chemical imbalances in the brain. Episodes can last for months or even longer if left untreated. People suffering from clinical depression may find it difficult to perform even the simplest of tasks and may experience a persistent sense of hopelessness and despair.
Situational depression, on the other hand, is triggered by specific life events such as loss or stress. While the symptoms are less severe than those of clinical depression, they can still be debilitating. Generally, situational depression lasts no more than six months after the triggering event has passed.
Mild depression presents with persistent symptoms that are not as intense as in clinical depression. In children and adolescents, it can last for at least one to two years, and in adults as well. People with mild depression can still carry out daily activities, but they may do so with less enthusiasm and motivation.
