| True clinical depression is a disorder that affects from 5% to 20% of Americans during their lifetime. In fact, one of the distinguishing factors between normal sadness or grief and clinical depression is the lack of any external reasons that could account for the changes in mood. Contrary to results of earlier work based on the same data set, an analysis of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth has found no evidence that women who have an abortion to terminate an unintended first pregnancy are at greater risk of clinical depression than their counterparts who carry to term. |
