Signs of depression in teenager
Depression in the elderly may occur quite often, as there are many factors contributing to this: the retirement, the sense of uselessness and futility, the deadweight loss of time. This is difficult to cope on their own.
The Main feature of depression in the elderly is its protracted nature. The disease can last for several years, especially if people do not seek help from professionals and blames apathy, fatigue, reduced activity and other factors, your age, and not a psychological problem.

Depending on what stage of depression it was discovered the disease depends directly on the effectiveness of treatment and the time of deliverance from the problem.
It is Important to remember that others will not be able to help get rid of disorder, it is essential to seek the assistance of a therapist.
Detection of disease is performed using ad hoc scales and questionnaires, through which it is possible not only to establish a definitive diagnosis (depression), but also to assess the seriousness of the situation.
In some cases, may require the study of bioelectrical brain activity (electroencephalogram) and hormonal tests.
When considering methods of diagnosis of the disease was mentioned the use of special questionnaires. Consider one of them to have an idea of what constitutes a test for depression.
The Patient must answer a few simple questions:

Treatment of depression with pharmacological agents involves the use of antidepressants, tranquilizers, and neuroleptics normotonikov.
To Designate use of a particular drug can only be a doctor on an individual basis. Wrong choice of drugs or their dosage may not only not benefit, butto cause irreparable harm, because they act on the Central nervous system and the brain.
In most cases for the correction of health may be sufficient only to antidepressants. The effect from their application is not immediately visible, need to last at least one to two weeks. Despite the force of the impact, antidepressants do not cause addiction and dependence. However, to stop drinking, the drugs should be gradually in order to avoid the so-called "withdrawal".
Treatment of depression through counselling psychotherapist may last for several months. There are many methods, and depending on the situation, the expert picks the right.
Physical therapy may be applied only as auxiliary means. It involves performing of procedures such as aromatherapy, massage, therapeutic sleep, light therapy, music therapy, and others.
As you can see, the disease is very serious. The consequences of depression can be very diverse, starting with the collapse of personal life and ending with suicide. So you should do everything possible to reduce the probability of its occurrence.

So, we reviewed the types of depression and features of this disease. Finally I would like to say that psychological health is not less important than physical. So if you're having problems it's better to trust the decision of an experienced specialist.
