While occasional sadness is a normal part of life, sometimes these feelings become overwhelming and persistent. This is when depression can take hold.

Symptoms of depression can include:

• Intense sadness or low mood
• Difficulty sleeping or sleeping too much.
• Loss of motivation or interest in activities
• Feelings of emptiness or numbness
• Difficulty functioning in daily life.
