Explanation:

Sadness is the way we react to disappointment or loss. Being blue for a week or so and then getting over it is natural, even you can’t pinpoint the source of your bad mood.

However, if you don’t allow yourself to feel what you feel and put on a pretend smile, you could have a mood disorder know as depression. It does not happen on adults only. Depression – happens to Youth. According to the National Mental Health Association, as many as one in five teens are depressed. Left untreated, depression can lead to falling grades, drug abuse and even attempts at suicide.

Actually, depression is only a reaction towards stress. Pain, a kind of feeling, is the reaction towards a particular kind of stimulation that harms our body. Is it a disease? Similarly, depression is just a signal that reminds us when we are under too much pressure, or when we are in an extremely bad mood. It will not harm our health unless it is left unaware. So depression is definitely not a disease.

In fact, depression can be a symptom of some diseases. The life-threatening disease, anorexia nervosa, is one of the examples. It is an eating disorder that will lead to extreme thinness. The major symptoms include depression. We should be clear that depression is not the cause of anorexia nervosa, but excess pressure.

Another thing that can distinguish depression from disease is that drugs cannot really help to cure it. If truth were told, drugs can only relieve the seriousness of depression. But most of the diseases can be cured by taking drugs for a period of time. After you have recovered, you don’t need to take drugs anymore. On the other hand, after you have taken the drugs for relieving depression, you will only feel better, but it is still there, not cured at all. Some people may even need to take drugs for the whole life. Therefore depression is not a disease.

After we have looked into depression in different points of view, we know that depression is not a disease but it can lead to diseases. As a result we cannot look down on it. We should take good care of those who are suffering from depression, especially the youngsters. As they have less experience in dealing with pressure, they may easily get lost in depression and choose to end up their lives by committing suicide.

Although depression is not a disease, sometimes, it is more terrible than diseases. So we should not look down on it.
