Abstract

It is of great significance to pay attention to the causes and prevention of depression. The purpose of this paper is to explore the mental and physical factors that lead to a depressed mood. The impact of gender differences on depression is explored by analyzing the etiology. The article provides a basic introduction to the available treatments for depression, followed by an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches. Among them, the article focuses on CBT therapy. The research methodology for this article is a review of the literature. The article concludes that on the mental side, external stressors, such as parental control, and non-adaptive thinking patterns can lead to depressive episodes. Physically, hippocampal atrophy, specific genetic inheritance, and sex hormone abnormalities can lead to depression. Currently, the main treatment methods include medication, CBT, IPT, DBT, etc. CBT accurately identifies and improves patients’ thinking patterns and ameliorates the high prevalence and low doctor-visiting rates of Depression in China.
