Despite seemingly popular belief, depression can cause a number of health risks, such as insomnia (not enough sleep) or hypersomnia (too much sleep), ulcers, body aches and even issues with memory loss. WebMD reports that the World Health Organization is suggesting that "depression has a greater impact on overall health than Arthritis, Diabetes, angina, and Asthma." Hope this helps some. :)
