Abstract

Key Points

  1. Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) not a "normal part of aging."
  2. Age influences demographics, etiology, presentation, assessment, acute and maintenance treatment, and outcome.
  3. Depressive syndromes in later life are significant and very treatable and recent advances in psychotherapies and somatic therapies improve treatment effectiveness.
