What are the symptoms of depression-Disease? |
| |
| Depression doesn't seem to have a single underlying cause, although experts believe the illness is caused by an imbalance in the brain's production of neurotransmitters, chemical messengers that send signals from one nerve cell to another. A depressive episode can be triggered by the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, a divorce, a life-threatening illness, or another serious difficulty. Stress, reaction to medication (such as beta-blockers), shortage of daylight in winter, over consumption of alcohol, smoking, food allergies, and nutritional deficiencies may also contribute to depression. Dysfunctional ways of coping with anger, guilt, and other emotions may be involved as well.
