While the exact cause of anxiety or depression are often complex to interpret, a number of distinct elements can be associated with its development. Generally, depression or anxiety does not result from a single event, but from a combination of biological, psychological, social and lifestyle factors including; personal factors, family history, personality, serious medical conditions, drug and alcohol use and significant adverse life events.
