Depression is defined as a mood disturbance, a disorder of feelings and emotions that can range from mild to severe in intensity. Quite wide spread, it is often referred to as being the "common cold of mental disorders". Depression is believed to be a result of a chemical imbalance in the brain. Some scientists believe that an imbalance happens first, causing the depression. Some believe that emotional stress may bring on the chemical changes that result in the characteristics of depression. Others see an destructive interactive influence of brain chemistry and one's environmental experiences on each other. Whatever the sequence of events, when a person is experiencing depression, certain chemical substances that transmit electrical impulses in the brain are too low in certain key parts of the brain. Typically, depression is experienced as feelings of sadness, disappointment, or loneliness that can lead to withdrawal from people and lessened enjoyment of life. Often, bodily discomforts such as aches and pains are present too.

98. Research Highlights At The University Of Virginia School Of Nursing When associate professor Emily Hauenstein talks about depression, Severaldoctoral and masters students in the school of Nursing are actively involved http://www.nursing.virginia.edu/highlights/depression.html

Helping Rural Women Overcome Depression When associate professor Emily Hauenstein talks about depression, she is not talking about the blues. She is referring to major depressive disorder (MDD), a recurrent, incapacitating illness characterized by debilitating changes in sleep patterns, appetite, mood, and memory lasting at least two weeks. It is a disease that particularly singles out women. Hauenstein was struck by the prevalence of MDD among rural women of childbearing age while working with chronically ill children at U.Va. during the 1980s. "Sick kids are a serious drain on maternal resources, and a great many of the moms were depressed," she recalls. Poverty and rural life in all its manifestationslack of health insurance, transportation, and child careconspired to prevent these women from taking advantage of the mental health services they needed. Hauenstein noted that when these women sought health care at all, they tended to use primary care settings. Accordingly, when she applied for a research demonstration grant from the National Institute of Mental Health, she made the rural community health centerand not the large regional hospitalthe point of entry for women needing treatment for MDD.
