existential depression  

Definición

  • Depression is a psychological disorder that is characterized by a collection of symptoms including depressed mood, decreased pleasure, weight changes, inability to concentrate, abnormal sleep patterns, agitation, fatigue, or a preoccupation with death. The existential theory of psychology posits that human pathology, such as depression, arises from contact, either real or imagined, with one of the four ultimate existential concerns that face humanity: death, existential isolation, freedom, and meaninglessness.
