Mood disturbances encompass a range of emotional experiences that disrupt one's overall sense of well-being. These disturbances can manifest as fluctuations in mood, energy levels, and motivation, impacting various aspects of daily life. Common mood disturbances include depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related conditions.

Impact on Daily Living:
Mood disturbances can significantly impair an individual's ability to function in daily life. They may affect relationships, work performance, academic success, and overall quality of life. Tasks that were once manageable may become daunting, leading to social withdrawal, academic decline, or occupational challenges.
