Many may disagree and argue that depression isn't all that serious and that it is simply normal for people to go through, but what about the people who harm themselves or others do to their chronic sadness and unhappiness (Depression). I believe that depression isn't well known or understood by many. Proven facts and history of depression honeslty shows that harm can be done and will help many understand that depression isnt normal for you to go through and that help should be seeked. People need to answer these questions like, how is depression caused? What is Depression? And/or Why do many people suffer from it? Or Can it even be treatedable or even controlled?  

Depression can be known as one of the most common mental illnesses in America. It is a mood disorder that causes people great sadness, which can leave you feeling guilty and unworthy. Depression can last weeks to years depending on when you’re diagnosed or even if you get treated. Another word to describe depression is known as, uni-polar meaning (one sided). “Depression is a whole body illness that affects the entire body as well as the mind”. There is more to depression than people may think or even know; many forms of it exists. Depression can be dangerous, and with knowing the facts and the key results first, will help many who don't know what dpression is stay informed and aware.

Depression can strike down anyone, so therefore it does not discriminate its victims. It is said that Depression usually strikes in late teens or early adulthood because thats usually when more stress and worries arrive in ones life. Depression also happens to affect more females then males mainly because the stress levels for women are more higher than men. Males usually do not tend to seek help from anyone because they are ashamed or maybe afraid that they'll be looked at in a bad way.
