What Are the Types of Depression?

There are several different types of depression, with clinical depression (also commonly referred to as major depressive disorder) being the most common and most severe type of depression. Clinical depression can be broken down into three different sub-types, including prenatal or postpartum depression, seasonal depression, and atypical depression. The other main types of depression include persistent depressive disorder, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder.
