ANSWER
Major depressive disorder (MDD) (MDD)
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a severe psychological condition associated with negative effects on how an individual thinks, acts, and feels. It also causes feelings of sadness or loss of interest in things that were previously of concern (Insel et al., 2014). It can reduce a person’s productivity at work or at home due to physical and emotional disturbances. The condition causes pain for both the depressed person and his or her family or friends. Many factors, including brain biology and chemistry, genetics, and life events such as problematic relationships or stressful situations, all contribute to the condition (Penninx et al., 2013).
