Depression is something that most people experience at some time in their life. It can be part of a normal, natural reaction to loss, a major life change or a tragedy, in which case it is classified as a “Reactive Depression”.
As the grieving process proceeds, over the next few weeks or months the depressed feelings should fade and life should go on, with less and less time spent thinking about the loss and feeling sad about it. Although situation-specific counseling may be helpful in getting through such a period of depression, and while there may be a brief (days or weeks) period of grieving in which normal daily activities are suspended, most reactive depressions resolve themselves within 1 to 3 months and normal functioning returns.
