Rates were higher among women (10.3%) than men (6.2%), and highest among ages 18\u201325 (18.6%) (NSDUH).<\/p>\r\n<p>Major depressive disorder is often referred to as the common cold of psychiatric disorders. Around 6.6% of the U.S. population experiences major depressive disorder each year; 16.9% will experience the disorder during their lifetime (Kessler &amp; Wang, 2009). Based on a survey in 2019, the percentage of adults aged 18 and over with regular feelings of depression was about 4.7%.[footnote]Clarke, T. C., Schiller, J. S., &amp; Boersma, P. (2019).

The greater risk among women is not accounted for by a tendency to report symptoms or to seek help more readily, suggesting that gender differences in the rates of major depressive disorder may reflect biological and gender-related environmental experiences (Kessler, 2003).<\/p>\r\n<p>Lifetime rates of major depressive disorder tend to be highest in North and South America, Europe, and Australia; they are considerably lower in Asian countries (Hasin, Fenton, &amp; Weissman, 2011). The rates of major depressive disorder are higher among younger age cohorts than among older cohorts, perhaps because people in younger age cohorts are more willing to admit depression (Kessler &amp; Wang, 2009).<\/p>\r\n<div>\r\n<section class=\"textbox tryIt\">[ohm2_question height=\"1100\"]4457[\/ohm2_question]<\/section>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<section data-depth=\"2\">\r\n<h2 data-type=\"title\">Results of Major Depressive Disorder<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">Major depression can affect nearly every area of life\u2014energy, attention, motivation, relationships, work\/school participation, and physical health.

These subtypes\u2014what the DSM-5 refer to as specifiers\u2014are not specific disorders; rather, they are labels used to indicate specific patterns of symptoms or to specify certain periods of time in which the symptoms may be present.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>One subtype, <strong>seasonal pattern<\/strong>, applies to situations in which a person experiences the symptoms of major depressive disorder only during a particular time of year (e.g., fall or winter). In everyday language, people often refer to this subtype as the winter blues.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Another subtype, <strong style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\">peripartum onset<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\"> (commonly referred to as <\/span><strong style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\">postpartum depression<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\">), applies to women who experience major depression during pregnancy or in the days\u2013even months\u2013following the birth of their child (APA, 2013). These women often feel very anxious and may even have panic attacks. They may feel guilty, agitated, or sad. They may not want to hold or care for their newborn, even in cases in which the pregnancy was desired and intended.<\/span><\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>In extreme cases, the mother may have feelings of wanting to harm her child or herself. In a horrific illustration, a woman named Andrea Yates, who suffered from extreme peripartum-onset depression (as well as other mental illnesses), drowned her five children in a bathtub (Roche, 2002). Most women with peripartum-onset depression do not physically harm their children, but most do have difficulty being adequate caregivers (Fields, 2010).<\/li>\r\n\t<li>A high number of women experience symptoms of peripartum-onset depression. A study of 10,000 women who had recently given birth found that 14% screened positive for peripartum-onset depression, and that nearly 20% reported having thoughts of wanting to harm themselves (Wisner et al., 2013).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n\t<li>People with <strong style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\">persistent depressive disorder<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\"> (previously known as <\/span><strong style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\">dysthymia<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; orphans: 1; text-align: initial; background-color: initial; word-spacing: normal;\">) experience depressed moods most of the day nearly every day for at least two years, as well as at least two of the other symptoms of major depressive disorder. People with persistent depressive disorder are chronically sad and melancholy but do not meet all the criteria for major depression. However, episodes of full-blown major depressive disorder can occur during persistent depressive disorder (APA, 2013).<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/section>\r\n<\/section>\r\n<section data-depth=\"1\"><\/section>","rendered":"<section class=\"textbox learningGoals\">\n<ul>\n<li>Describe major depressive disorder, related disorders, and their risk factors<\/li>\n<li>Describe bipolar disorder and its risk factors<\/li>\n<li>Describe genetic, biological, and psychological explanations of major depressive disorder<\/li>\n<li>Discuss the relationship between mood disorders and suicidal ideation, as well as factors associated with suicide<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<h2>Depression and Related Disorders<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Arjun cries most of the day and feels hopeless; he can\u2019t get out of bed.
