&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Depression?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s perfectly normal to feel sad or lonely at times. These are healthy responses to life&amp;rsquo;s struggles. However, sometimes the feelings of hopelessness and despair can become overwhelming.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Such feelings may seriously disrupt a person&amp;rsquo;s ability to function normally, and last for long periods of time (e.g. weeks to months).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;In such cases, these symptoms may point towards clinical depression.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;An increase in physical complaints such as headaches, back pain, aching muscles, and stomach pain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The symptoms of depression differ between person to person and vary with age, gender and background. However, there are some common themes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you find that many of the items on the above list of depression symptoms apply to you, this may indicate that you are suffering from depression.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_4  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;et_pb_text_inner&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Deciding on how to treat depression depends on its cause &amp;ndash; understanding the underlying cause of your depression may help you overcome the problem.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Depression which is caused by personal circumstances can be best treated by changing those circumstances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;For example, if your depression is caused by a toxic work environment, seeking a new workplace or career may be the best treatment. Depression caused by loneliness can be alleviated by going out to social events and meeting new people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However, experiencing depression may make you feel helpless to take such action. In the meantime, you can take a few simple steps to alleviate some of your symptoms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
