Yes, there are many kinds of depression. Depression is very common and very diverse. Classical depression, also called melancholic depression, was first described over two thousand years ago. People with classical depression usually have trouble sleeping - they wake up too early in the morning and cannot fall asleep again. They also don't want to eat, and they lose weight. Even when good things happen, they still feel sad and hopeless. Less than 50% of depression patients match these classic symptoms, and this is called atypical depression. Many depressed people sleep too much. Many depressed people eat too much and gain weight. Many depressed people do feel happier, for a short time, if good things happen. People with classical depression tend to get depressed for a few months, but then they get better again. Some types of depression are much more brief. Women with premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) get very depressed during a certain stage of their menstrual cycle, but it usually lasts no more than two weeks. Different types of depression respond to different medications, so it is important to find a doctor and talk about your symptoms. How much do you sleep? How much do you eat? When do you feel happy? What negative feelings do you experience? When a doctor or therapist has a good idea of what type of depression you have, they can make recommendations just for you. Everyone is different, and every case of depression is different. Although there are broad categories with important similarities, such as classical depression, bipolar depression, psychotic depression, and PMDD.
