Re: depressed girls after marriage
I think Alvena can explain this better but Depression is actually a medical condition when it lasts for a certain period of time (longer than 3 months? not sure abt that) but anyway, it can be caused by actual imbalance in the brain of certain chemicals necessary for emotional stability. Docs dont know why this happens but there are medications that can help the brain balance the chemicals that it needs to function smoothly and happily. People with true depression cannot help it, they will be depressed no matter how happy their situation may seem. Its a disease that can be controlled with medication and/or counselling.
That said, there are many docs in the mental health profession who will prescribe medications to those who arent truly suffering from depression. The medications are very over used at least in the USA. Theres a vast difference between actual depression and a passing case of "the blues" that all of us experience from time to time. So you really need to find a reliable doc who will really take careful care.
