"Normal Depression is often triggered by an event or circumstance in which you react to emotionally, such as the death of a loved one. This type of depression is psychological because you are emotionally “reacting” to something that has happened."
"Clinical Depression is more serious, triggered by a chemical imbalance in the brain. This is a biological disorder of the brain, but it has psychological symptoms. This type of depression need not follow any sad, stressful or upsetting event; it can kick in for no apparent reason at all other than a change in one’s brain chemicals."
Is this correct or is clinical depression just depression that is more serious and is not specifically due to chemical imbalance? I’m kind of confused about all this.
I thought that was right but I’m doing research for school and I keep getting mixed information. Most people say clinical depression in depression which lasts more than a few weeks, but that didn’t sound like the proper meaning.
