Depression is the medical term for depression. But there are different types of depression depending on the particular constellation of symptoms.

For instance a few include:

Dysthymia - a long term low level of depression

Anhedonia - loss of a sense of pleasure

Cyclothymia - a milder form of bipolar

Major depressive disorder - what most lay people call depression
