DSM-5 Criteria for Major Depressive Disorder Diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder (MDD). Depressive symptoms≥5 symptoms during the same two week period that are a change from previous functioning; depressed mood and/or loss of interest/pleasure must be present; exclude symptoms clearly attributable to another medical condition.
