Reactive Depression

Reactive depression is normally a reaction to some specific trigger. In many instances this type of depression is short-term.

Reactive depression is associated with marked dejection, such as following the death of a near relative or friend, some major illness, failure in business or loss of job, or due to any other episode causing severe and persistent psychic trauma, it is called reactive depression (also called Transient situational disturbance, i.e. a reaction to a particular event).
