उत्तर २

A mood disorder is a mental health condition where a person experiences extreme or long-lasting changes in mood. These moods can be too high (as in mania) or too low (as in depression), and they affect how a person thinks, feels, and functions in daily life.

Common types of mood disorders include:

  • Depression: persistent sadness, lack of energy, and loss of interest.
  • Bipolar Disorder: shifts between episodes of depression and mania.

Mood disorders can interfere with work, relationships, and overall well-being, and they often need treatment like therapy or medication.
