risk characterisation

Definition: A disorder characterized by repeated episodes of depression as described for depressive episode (F32.-), without any history of independent episodes of mood elevation and increased energy (mania). There may, however, be brief episodes of mild mood elevation and overactivity (hypomania) immediately after a depressive episode, sometimes precipitated by antidepressant treatment.

The first episode may occur at any age from c ...[+++]hildhood to old age, the onset may be either acute or insidious, and the duration varies from a few weeks to many months.
