<h2 class = 'uawtitle'>What Are The Causes Of Depression?</h2><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>by Russell Kemerling</div><div class='uawarticle'><br />Let there be no doubt that depression is a serious mental illness that requires months and sometimes years of treatment on the path to a cure. Millions of Americans across the United States are affected by depression each and every year. To make things worse it is estimated that only a third of those who suffer the disease will ever seek treatment.<br />
<br />
Many Americans don't want to be considered crazy, so because depression is considered a mental affliction they avoid diagnosis. Instead of being considered mentally ill, people try to manage the problem themselves. Depression is more common- place than you might think and it will not go away on its own. <br />
<br />
Why do people get depression? There are many factors to consider, so the answer isn't simple. There are so many things factored into the cause of this disease. Let's list a few of the contributing factors to depression. A chemical imbalance is widely considered to be the main cause for depression. Why does this chemical problem in the brain happen?<br />
<br />
Typically the causes stem from biological, genetic, physical, mental and environmental implications. There are those inflicted that never really determine what spurned their depression. Depression often follows diagnosis of other medical conditions, particularly those that result in imminent death or are chronic.<br />
<br />
Another cause of depression can be the emotional pain felt after losing a loved one. In many cases the loss can be very traumatic. Depression often follows sexual or physical abuse, or emotional attacks. Substance abuse, either drug or alcohol, can also cause depression. People's mental states are fragile. If exposed to the wrong pressures, depression can result. There can also be a genetic element to depression. A strong correlation between family history of depression and current depression has been found. There are even some prescribed medications that can bring on depression. It has been clinically proven that some high blood pressure medication can cause depression. <br />
<br />
Depression can result from stress. In our lives many events and elements can cause stress. Some of that stress can even be related to positive events in our lives such as promotions, graduation or moving into a new house. The unknown is often the root cause of this stress, whether it be positive or negative. In addition, many are stressed from personal conflicts with their loved ones, associates in employment or friends. There are a great number of people who are stressed from simply trying to perform their jobs to satisfaction and trying to support their families from week to week.<br />
<br />
Doctors first look for cause when seeking a treatment for depression. If you or someone you love suffers from depression-please seek medical assistance.</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br />
