A depressive disorder is an illness
that involves the body, mood, and thoughts. It affects the way a
person eats and sleeps, the way one feels about oneself, and the
way one thinks about things. A depressive disorder is not the same
as a passing blue mood. It is not a sign of personal weakness or a
condition that can be willed or wished away. People with a
depressive illness cannot merely "pull themselves
together" and get better.
