Essay / Research Paper Abstract
3 pages in length. Depression -- an equal opportunity debilitator with no preference for age, gender or race –- weakens the mind's capacity to cope with normal, everyday events. People who are depressed no longer find pleasure in the activities they have always enjoyed, have no energy, feel overwhelmed by insignificant occurrences or setbacks and find it very difficult to focus, concentrate or care about much of anything. A wave of apathy and sadness sweeps over them often without any obvious reason and impacts all aspects of their lives, not the least of which includes physical health, interpersonal relationships and job performance. Fuentes (2009) notes the number of undiagnosed cases make it even more difficult for people to address their suffering without help from drug and/or therapeutic treatment options, with children and adolescents are particularly prone to being either undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

fully able to maintain their lives as normal, with some gaining significant benefit from medication and others just learning to cope with their emotional pain (Zimbardo, Johnson & McCann, 2005).
The four main types of depression include major depressive disorder, many severe episodes that typically manifest from chronic - or dysthymic - depression);
dysthymic depression, mild yet chronic in its attack upon the individual. The perpetual dark cloud feeling begins early in life and stays with the person as he or she
ages; unspecified depression, those in between dysthymic and major depression, not experienced depressive symptoms long enough (2 years) to be dysthymic, or whose depression is the manifestation of trauma that
should have already played out according to the expected adjustment period; and bipolar depression, lifts its victims into the crazed physical and mental hype of mania and then drops them
