Depression is a mental illness in which a person experiences deep sadness and diminished interest in nearly all activities. People also use the term “depression” to describe a low mood, loneliness or blues that everyone feels from time to time. In contrast to normal sadness, severe depression, also called “major depression”, can dramatically impair a person’s ability to function in social situations and at work. People with major depression often have feelings of worthlessness, helplessness and hopelessness, accompanied by low self-esteem and inappropriate guilt as well as thoughts of committing suicide. Although it may appear anytime from childhood to old age, depression usually begins during a person’s 20s or 30s. The illness may come on slowly and then deepen gradually over months or years. On the other hand, it may erupt suddenly in a few weeks or days. A person who develops severe depression may appear extremely anxious, frightened and unbalanced. Insomnia is common among the depressed people. Appetite often decreases, resulting in weight loss. Other symptoms of depression include poor concentration and memory. The illness affects all people, regardless of sex, race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic standing. However, women are two or three times more likely than men to suffer from depression. Experts disagree on the reason for this difference. Some cite differences in hormones, and others point to the stress caused by the society’s expectations of women.

當你閱讀一篇文章，發現它主要是在討論人類的「內心情緒、精神狀態以及行為背後的內在原因」，而不是在討論具體的身體構造器官，或物質與能量的運動定律時，你認為這類知識通常會歸類在研究哪一種現象的學門中？

文章主題與學科連結
這篇文章從定義「憂鬱症（Depression）」開始，系統性地探討了患者的情緒狀態（如無助感、罪惡感）、生理症狀（如失眠、食慾下降）以及可能的致病因素（如荷爾蒙與社會壓力）。這種針對人類心智運作、情緒功能障礙以及行為模式的深度解析，正是 心理學（Psychology） 教科書最具代表性的內容。雖然文中提到了荷爾蒙（hormones），但其討論重心並非生理構造或化學反應，而是將其視為影響心理健康的變因之一。
