Depression: Depression is a mental health disorder characterised by a persistent and intense feeling of sadness for an extended duration of time. It mainly impacts mood, behaviour and other physical functions, such as sleep and appetite. Symptoms include sadness, loss of interest, appetite changes, sleep problems, restlessness, lack of energy, feeling worthless or guilty, thoughts of harming oneself, difficulty in concentrating, making decisions and thinking. The exact cause of depression is unknown. However, factors such as stress, changes in hormone levels, alcohol or drug abuse, abuse during childhood, certain medical conditions and medications might increase the risk of developing depression. 

Bed-wetting: Childhood enuresis is also known as bed-wetting in children. In most cases, children are toilet trained by the age of 5, but generally, there is no target date for complete bladder control development. A small number of children still wet the bed even after the age of 7 years. This may or may not be purposeful, and the condition is not diagnosed until the child is 5 years or older. The causes could be a small bladder, urinary tract infections, stress and developmental delays that could interfere with toilet training. Symptoms include repeated bed-wetting, wetting in the clothes and wetting at least twice a week for 3 months.
