Depression is a mental disorder and it has following symptoms – feeling sad, losing interest in things that you normally enjoy doing, feeling worthless, haing irregular sleep patterns; for at least 2 weeks in a row. And the sad picture is that many people are falling prey to this clinical depression, every year.
