Abstract
Depression, in psychology, a mood or emotional state that is marked by feelings of low self-worth or guilt and a reduced ability to enjoy life generally characterised by feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or pessimism; lowered self-esteem and heightened self-depreciation; a decrease or loss of ability to take pleasure in ordinary activities; reduced energy and vitality; slowness of thought or action; loss of appetite; and disturbed sleep or insomnia. The relationship between depression and adjustment; we find that adjustment is something which is related to stress and is a short term condition that happens when you have great difficulty managing some kind of over work or major life change, loss of events. Personality characteristics appear to contribute to the onset and course of depression through a variety of pathways. A variety of models of the relations between personality and mood disorders have been proposed. Classical models of personality- depression relations and dynamic models of personality-depression relations are main two and under it various sub-models are included. Depression can be cured but there should be proper interaction between the person who is in depression and with the peer groups and family members.
