Major DepressionMajor Depression
• Symptoms cause marked distress and/or impairment in social or occupational functioning.
• No evidence of medical or substance-induced etiology for the patient’s symptoms.
• Symptoms are not due to a normal reaction to the death of a loved one.

Bereavement and Bereavement and Late Life DepressionLate Life Depression
• 25 – 35% of widows/widowers meet diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder at 2 months.
• ~15% of widows/widowers meet diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder at one year.
• This figure remains stable throughout the second year.

Inconsistent findings when studying measures of these systems: MHPG (3 methoxy 4 hydroxyphenolglycol) and 5HIAA (5 hydroxy indoleacetic acid) in the urine and CSF.
Treatments block monoamine uptake acutely, however the positive effects occur in 2-4 weeks.

Receptor theory more usefulReceptor theory more useful
Antidepressant treatment causes a down regulation in central adrenergic and serotonergic receptors– This change corresponds temporally to the
antidepressant response
