It’s normal to feel sad, depressed or blue on occasion. It’s a natural reaction to challenges,
struggles, problems, and loss. These feelings usually pass after a few days. However, if your symptoms
are intense, last for long periods of time, and interfere with your daily life, it could be a major
sign for clinical depression.
