What is called latent depression?

Hidden depression is a depression characterized by low mood, but not easily detected.

The etiology of hidden depression is complex, generally related to genetic factors, biochemical factors, social psychological factors and other reasons. Patients usually show mild depressive symptoms, such as insomnia, loss of appetite, lack of concentration, mood swings, etc., but these symptoms are not enough to attract the attention of the outside world and are easily misdiagnosed as other diseases, such as neurasthenia, mental fatigue, etc.

Patients can be treated with fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor to regulate mood and control the disease.
