Depression can affect anyone at any age. Sometimes we can pinpoint it i.e. loss of a job, loved one. Sometimes it seems to just hit us out of the blue. The latter, may be chemicals in the brain. It could also be food we eat. Food intolerances don't always cause just an upset stomach. It can affect your mood too. For those who may not believe it, just think of the euphoria one can get from eating chocolate! So if people can't pinpoint their depression (anxiety, panic too), look at what you ate.
Have you been able to identify the causes of your depression?
 
Thankfully I do not have depression. Frankly speaking, depression usually develops from a combination of factors rather than a single cause. Biological influences like brain chemistry, hormones, and genetics can play a role, while stressful life events, trauma, or loss can trigger symptoms. Physical health issues, poor sleep, isolation, and negative thinking patterns can also contribute to how depression develops and persists.
