    Major depression disorder is a prevalent condition that is affecting the mental health of millions of people globally. It varies from ordinary mood fluctuation to chronic condition. Depression can significantly impair the overall functioning and quality of life. In depression, there is an imbalance of the neurotransmitters like serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. To treat major depressive disorder, there are therapeutic approaches. One of the most popular therapeutic techniques is CBT. It is clinically proven to be one of the best therapeutic techniques in treating depression. Cognitive behavioral therapy is efficient in the treatment of depression and alleviating the symptoms of it. It helps in fostering long-term recovery. CBT effectiveness and outcomes vary based on factors like personality traits and individual differences. Everyone is different and has distinct personality traits that make him unique, so CBT outcomes vary (Beck et al., 1979).
