1 Introduction Depression is the most prevalent mental disorder, with patients often experiencing aversion, despair, hallucinations, and suicidal attempts and behaviors, posing a serious threat to their health. The incidence rate can reach 15% to 20%, with a recurrence rate as high as 30% to 40% (Narang et al. 2016). According to estimates from the WHO, depression is projected to emerge as the primary cause of disease burden globally by 2030.
