Depression

• Overview:

Depression is a common and serious mental health condition that affects mood, thoughts, and daily functioning. It is characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest in activities once enjoyed. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include changes in appetite, sleep patterns, and energy levels. In our older male patients, especially those who have recently lost a spouse, depression is particularly prevalent and can be life-altering if not addressed.

• Impact:

Depression can significantly impair daily life, affecting work, relationships, and overall well-being. Many men, especially those recently widowed, may struggle with grief, isolation, and a reluctance to seek help. This can lead to difficulties in concentration, decision-making, and physical health, as well as an increased risk of emotional distress or suicidal thoughts.
