YES---If it's in your genes and if you're not positive. If you think that you may have it----go see a therapist ---- GOOD LUCK!!! =) STAY POSTIVE!! ;)

you don't GET depression, you get depressed. If you stay depressed for a long period of time, then a doctor can diagnose you with depression. It doesn't happen overnight. That could just be a mood that you're in and it would most likely pass.

Depression doesn't happen overnight. The mind is depressed bit by bit. It is difficult to distinguish sadness with depression. Often if you are too sad, it leads into depression.
Sadness is the emotion that you are unhappy about a present event. Depression is the emotion that you are feeling bad about the future.

Though depression is usually inherited, and a chemical imbalance, it does not always surface in one's younger years. It might show itself in the teens, twenties--even in senior citizens. Yes, it can appear to just happen overnight. You (or whomever is suffering with depression) should go to a doctor right away, so he/she can make a diagnosis, and determine if therapy and/or medications are in order.

depression affects many people over a period of time. these people get hurt in some way weather it's a job loss, losing loved ones, gaining weight....the list can go on. if you just got this feeling overnight and usually don't feel this way, it's probably just a bad day for you

I think your enviroment has a lot to do with it. the people around you. it is all a huge factor. It doesnt happen overnight, but you realize fast, but dont care to do much about it...because your depressed.

people get depression over time, it's not an overnight thing.

depression is actually a mental disease. It is a unbalance of serotinin in your brain.....A lot of things can make the depression worse.
