Abstract in brief

Epidemiological studies show that major depression is a common disorder worldwide, with significant variation in lifetime prevalence, age of onset, and chronicity across different countries.
Certain sociodemographic factors, such as low education, teenage childbearing, and marital disruptions, are consistently associated with higher risks of depression across cultures.
Depression is linked to numerous adverse outcomes, including difficulties in life transitions, reduced functioning, secondary mental health issues, and increased risks of physical health problems and early death.
