Answer 2

c. two weeks

Explanation:

• "Major depressive disorder (MDD)" is a mental disorder with a "pervasive low mood" for at least two weeks." Low self-esteem", lack of interest in enjoyable activities, decreased energy & pain "without" a well specified cause are typical symptoms .
• Sometimes those "affected" may also have  "hallucinations & delusions". Some may have years of "depression", and some almost only have symptoms. "Major depression", that is a "normal part of life", is worse & lasts "longer than grief"
• Those with "major depressive disorder" are usually advised and treated with anti-depressant drugs. The "medication" seems to be successful, however it can only have a "major impact" on the most deeply depressed.
• "Cognitive behavioral therapy ( CBT) and interpersonal therapy" , and "electroconvulsant treatment (ECT)" are among the methods of intervention used can be used where these approaches are unsuitable. In situations where the possibility of injury to themselves is present, hospitalisation may be appropriate and may happen "against" the "wishes of a individual".
