Welcome To Our Community Bestwishes,
Loneliness is definitely part of depression, but it also part of many other mental illnesses. Thus, as a symptom, it isn't specific to Major Depressive Disorder. The symptoms listed in the above slide are more likely to differentiate Major Depressive Disorder from other mental illnesses.
15% of the populations of developed countries suffers severe depression. 54% of people believe depression is a personal weakness. 80% of depressed people are not currently having any treatment. The rate of increase of depression among children is 23%.And by 2020 depression will be the second most common health problem in the world.
Depression, mental stress is common to every one because many people working many hours for earning but not concentrating on health. So much thankful to you for sharing.
