Depression Help - What Does Severe Depression as Opposed to Chronic Depression Look Like?

What Does Severe Depression as Opposed to Chronic Depression Look Like?

Severe depression is a profound depression resulting from a loss. Chronic depression is the end result of severe depression if help is not sought or the sufferer does not move through the sadness.

The death of a loved one can bring on severe depression. You miss them terribly, cry long and often, and can find no joy in your life. You can't seem to do the regular household chores or go about your daily routine. This profound sadness is part of the grief process.

Everyone grieves differently, and there is no set deadline for when your grief should end. Real grief never ends, I have been told, but in time we are typically able to function and even experience happiness again, as life does go on.

Depression Help - Avoid Reactive Depression by Learning to Cope Positively With Life Changes

Avoid Reactive Depression by Learning to Cope Positively With Life Changes

Reactive depression as the name implies is depression in direct relation to some event in a person's life. It is also called adjustment disorder with depressed mood.

The symptoms of reactive depression can last for a relatively short period of time, from two weeks to six months, however if the cause is still present treatment can last much longer.

Unlike most types of depression, the person normally gets over reactive depression on their own as they learn to cope with the event that causes it.
