| | Clinical depression - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The VNS device is implanted in a patient's chest with wires that connect it to the vagus nerve, which it stimulates to reach a region of the brain associated with moods. | | | Clinical depression is a state of sadness or melancholia that has advanced to the point of being disruptive to an individual's social functioning and/or activities of daily living. | | | Although a mood characterized by sadness is often colloquially referred to as depression, clinical depression is something more than just a temporary state of sadness. |

| | The Depressed Child - AACAP Facts For Families # 4 |
| | The behavior of depressed children and teenagers may differ from the behavior of depressed adults. | | | For example, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) are forms of individual therapy shown to be effective in treating depression. | | | Because the youngster may not always seem sad, parents and teachers may not realize that troublesome behavior is a sign of depression. |

| | Depression as a disorder (characterized by pervasive pessimism, low self-esteem and total lack of initiative) may develop if there are constant unachievable objects or goals and there are no positive relationships to help a person change direction. | | | IPT is not as specific as cognitive or behavioral therapy, and all work is done during the sessions. | | | Depression is second only to high blood pressure as a chronic condition encountered by primary care physicians. |

| | Many of the self-help exercises on this site are based on a technique called cognitive therapy; there's a growing body of evidence for the effectiveness of this approach. | | | If your low mood or loss of interest in life interferes with your home, family or work, lasts for two weeks or more, or brings you to the point of thinking about suicide, you may be experiencing clinical depression and you should seek help. | | | The incidence of post-natal depression certainly contributes to the higher figure. |

| | Teen Depression: Prevention, Detection and Causes |
| | Because most depressed young adults do not seek help on their own, your parents, teachers, school counselors and coaches have to recognize the symptoms and know something about teen suicide facts and signs. | | | One of your friends may have indicated that he or she wants to "give up" or "end the misery." If you suspect that someone you know is desperate for help, tell an adult—a teacher, a counselor, or a coach. | | | As the rate of teen depression rises, so does the incidence of suicide. |
