Depression Symptom Resolution

Meaning

The clinical achievement of a sustained state where the core emotional, cognitive, and somatic manifestations of a depressive disorder are significantly diminished or completely alleviated. This outcome is a primary goal in mental health intervention and is often tracked using standardized psychometric rating scales and objective functional assessments. Complete resolution signifies a return to baseline emotional resilience, cognitive clarity, and a renewed capacity for pleasure and engagement in daily life.
