Many people use the word depression to explain these feelings, but depression is much more than just a feeling of sadness.

Depression may be expressed in a wide spectrum of affective, physiologic, cognitive, and behavioral manifestations. A depressed teenager may be hostile, grumpy, or may easily lose his or her temper.
