Silent killer

Dear DJ Jacky G.,

Unsa man diay gyud nang depression?  Kanang sad ta, mao na?  —Maita

Dear Maita,

It’s not as simple as that. “Depression ranges in seriousness from mild, temporary episodes of sadness to severe, persistent depression. Clinical depression is the more-severe form of depression, also known as major depressive disorder. Clinical depression can affect people of any age, including children. However, clinical depression symptoms, even if severe, usually improve with psychological counseling, antidepressant medications or a combination of the two – mayoclinic.org

Ang bad news? Bisan kinsa pwede maigo ani. Ang good news? It’s treatable. Early detection, diagnosis,family support and faith are musts in overcoming this silent killer.
