When depression strikes ..
when depression strikes doctors usually probe what?s going on in the mind and brain first.

It?s not uncommon for a physical illness to trigger depression. Up to half of heart attack survivors and those with cancer report feeling blue, and many are diagnosed with depression. Many people who have diabetes, Parkinson?s and other chronic conditions become depressed.
It works in the other direction, too. Depression can affect the course of a physical disease. Take heart disease ? depression has been linked with slower recovery from a heart attack and an increased risk for future heart trouble.

Here?s another chicken-or-egg example. Two common thyroid disorders are well known to affect mood. If the thyroid makes too much hormone (hyperthyroidism), manic symptoms can result. If the gland makes too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism), exhaustion and depression can appear. Treating thyroid disease can often relieve the mood problems.
The list doesn?t stop there. Other medical conditions associated with mood disorders include certain neurological conditions (multiple sclerosis, Parkinson?s disease, Alzheimer?s), other hormonal imbalances, and some nutritional deficiencies, such as a lack of vitamin B12.
