A contrast: geriatric depression versus depression in younger age groups.

F M Baker1.   

Abstract

A major depressive illness can occur at any stage of the life cycle. This article discusses the various presentations of depressive illness in older persons and contrasts these disorders with other age groups. A mnemonic based on the word "depression" provides a summary of several causes of depressive illness. The discussion concludes with a few comments on the diagnosis and screening for depression.
