Depression
Depression is a serious psychiatric disorder also called clinical depression or major depressive disorder. Depression is also the name for feelings of sadness, helplessness, or hopelessness, which may be a result of clinical depression or other psychiatric disorders, or may arise for some other reason, such as bereavement, job loss, major life changes, or physical illness. If you have depressed feelings for a long time, or for no obvious reason, you should see a doctor. Whatever the reason, low moods can be soothed by using essential oils.
