Depression is something like the person is feeling low mood, lack of optimism, poor sleep hygiene ,lack of interest and enjoyment in day to day activities, some time it leads to the extent of weight loss, withdrawn and suicidal ideas etc, first we have to diagnose the condition and to judge what type of help he needs.
