Clinical depression is the more-severe form of depression, also known as major depression or major depressive disorder. It isn't the same as depression caused by a loss, such as the death of a loved one, or a medical condition, such as a thyroid disorder.

The correct answer is : a medical condition that may occur due to a chemical imbalance int he brain.

Clinical depression refers to a more severe form of depression. It is also called major depressive disorder. It is a mental disorder that is characterized by having a feeling of sadness, anger, frustration, that could get away with life. It is NOT the same as experiencing a loss of a someone or the like.
