Depression is a very common disorder in which a state of sadness at times seems to envelope one’s whole state of being. Depression gets a tight grip on a person that is difficult to shake loose. It can definitely have a large genetic component, but it can also be brought on by being predisposed to a particular trigger (for example a rejection, a failure, an overwhelming loss).

One of the best treatments for depression is a combination of medication and ongoing psychotherapy. Learning how to deal with depression by acquiring coping skills is imperative while awaiting a medicinal drug treatment to take effect (it can be several weeks for them to help).

Physical activity, forcing yourself to socialize (even though it is the last thing you want to do) and seeking psychological assistance are your best bets. There is lots of help out there for depression treatment in the CT and NJ area!
