Depression refers to severe and long-lasting 'down' times that impair regular activities. Depression can be caused by a variety of factors, including socioeconomic constraints, but a family history of depression and severe stress can increase the likelihood of the disease. According to the World Health Organziation it is the most commonly reported mental health problem among women.
