From Chapter 1 "Depression, like many other mental disorders, ischaracterised by the presence of a number of symptoms which arechangeable over time." Among these symptoms are a depressed moodand a loss of interest; physical and cognitive changes may alsooccur. Because of difficulties in diagnosis (and varied criteria)only estimates in the global number of cases of depression can bemade. Some estimates put it in front of chronic heart disease as ahealth problem and cause of death.
