There are many different types of depression that each has their own diagnosis as well as treatment. In all cases a medical doctor will have to make a professional diagnosis before prescribing medication or other treatment.

While all forms of depression are serious, perhaps the most severe form is "Major" depression. This type of depression is frequently easy to diagnose because there are several symptoms typically present that lead to the diagnosis. Major depression can be triggered by traumatic events or an event in the individual's personal life. Major depression can also result from a series of personal disappointments the effect on individual's life. While major depression is common for many people, it's usually a one-time event that is treatable; with treatment, the individual may never experience depression again in their lifetime.

Dysthymic disorder is another depression type altogether. Those who suffer from it show different, less visible symptoms. They generally feel depressed everyday for a long time. The symptoms are low energy, low self-esteem, change in appetite, and recurring sadness. These patients usually respond well to medication, combined with counseling. Any person suffering from dysthymic depression should always stay on top of the symptoms. It often comes back at unexpected times.

There are other types of depression that are often difficult to define and to put into any category. Only a medical doctor will be able to determine how severe the depression is and whether or not it should be treated with medication. One type of depression that is difficult to determine is called "reactive depression", otherwise known as an adjustment disorder. In this type of depression the person is having difficulty adjusting to changes in their life and may be experiencing severe side effects of some type of stress in their life. In this type of depression a medical doctor may be reluctant to prescribe any type of medication and instead may recommend counseling and therapy.

The single most important thing to remember if you or a loved one is experiencing depression is to seek the advice of a trained professional experienced with treating depression. Some times person only exhibits some of the minor symptoms of depression. As a result, they tend to minimize their symptoms, assuming this is just a minor disturbance. Even those suffering from minor depression can find relief with medications or therapies. There is no reason to let these depressions reach crisis state. Anyone who suffers from depression should seek help, no matter how minor the depression, there is always help available, no one needs suffer alone.
