Common types of depression
There are several types of depression and the most common are listed below. If you, or a loved one, have any form of depression – or you are experiencing depression and anxiety – please get in touch and we can help.
Major depression is a severe form of depression and people experience symptoms most of the time. Also known as major depressive disorder.
Continuous mild depression that lasts for two years or more. It might not feel as intense as major depression but can still make life very difficult. People with this condition may also have bouts of major depression at times. Also known as chronic depression or dysthymia.
Depression that occurs at a particular time of year, or during a particular season. For most sufferers, it tends to happen during the winter. Also known as seasonal depression.
Situational depression is brought on by a traumatic event, such as the death of a loved one, serious illness, divorce or job loss. It is normal to feel sad when faced with a major life change but situational depression occurs when a person struggles to come to terms with it.
Depression that occurs during pregnancy. The condition makes the mother-to-be feel constantly sad for weeks or months. It can vary from mild to severe. Also known as antenatal depression and perinatal depression.
Depression that occurs anytime in the first year after giving birth. It can affect men and women. Symptoms include a persistent feeling of sadness, lack of energy and difficulty bonding with the baby.
