Highlights & Basics
- Depression can describe both a mood and an illness.
- Major depressive disorder is a clinical syndrome involving mood, neurovegetative functions, cognition, and behavior.
- Depressive disorders are very common and are among the leading causes of disability and excess mortality worldwide.
- Risk factors include prior depression and a family history of depression. A history of adverse childhood experiences, recent bereavement, stress, or medical illness may contribute.
- For screening and diagnosis, self-rating forms are helpful, but clinical diagnosis is essential. Positive screening should trigger full history, mental status exam, treatment, and follow-up.
