IF INDIVIDUAL CLAIM TO HAVE JOB RELATED ANXIETY OF DEPRESSION. SHOULD COMPANY BE LIABLE?

Lately Nadia hasn't felt like herself. Her friends have noticed it, too. Ain was surprised when Nadia turned down her invitation to go to the mall last Saturday (Nadia could always be counted on to shop!). There was really no reason not to go, but Nadia just didn't feel like it. Instead, she spent most of Saturday sleeping.

Staying in more than usual isn't the only change in Nadia. She's always been a really good student. But over the past couple of months her grades have fallen and she has trouble concentrating. She forgot to turn in a paper that was due and is having a hard time getting motivated to study for her finals.

Nadia feels tired all the time but has difficulty falling asleep. She's gained weight too. When her mother asks her what's wrong, Nadia just feels like crying. But she doesn't know why. Nothing particularly bad has happened. Yet Nadia feels sad all the time and can't shake it.

Nadia may not realize it yet, but she is depressed.
