Effect of Major Depression

In previous post, we already discuss a little bit about effect of major depression. But, actually what kind of hardship that the sufferer of this sickness must face everyday? I'll try to explain it in simple way. 

Major Depression will affect the life of the sufferer directly or undirectly. It may cause the sufferer to have very bad sleeping habit. Normal person who have problem with his sleeping (such as insomnia or hypersomnia) will have her life become mess, because he/she will feel fatigue from lack of sleep. Then, can you imagine how the person that suffered from major depression have sleeping habit? Of course it'll become serious disaster.

Beside that, it'll affect everyday life of the sufferer. Because he/she can't enjoy normally enjoyable experience, it may cause the sufferer to pull him/herself from social life and it'll cause them to get isolated from society. Obviously, it'll affect the sufferer's school, work, and family life. It may lead to drop out, fired, and divorce that followed by feeling of worthlesness.

Because of depression that doesn't stop, the sufferer will seek for pleasures that he/she can get from forbidden medicinal item. And we know that if someone get addicted to them will lead into another disaster such as major depression with psychotic features. In worst case scenario, the sufferer will get tired of everyday life and this will lead to suicide. 

If I imagine it happen in my life, I think I don't know what must I do to live in this world again. It must be very hard to those who suffer this depression. So, let's support them with affection and open hands. And most of all, let's not judge and not treat any people carelessly. Because everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.
