~TYPES OF INNER PAIN~
~DEPRESSION~
Depression is a serious medical condition that is caused by chemical abnormalities in the brain.
Depression affects the mind, but this doesn't mean "it's all in your head." Depression is a medical illness linked to changes in the biochemistry of the brain.
Depression is not a weakness of character. Being depressed does not mean that a person is inadequate. It means the person has a medical illness that is just as real as diabetes or ulcers. Like other medical disorders, clinical depression should not be ignored or dismissed. A clinically depressed person cannot simply "snap out of it" any more than a person with an ulcer could simply will it away. (rewrite in own words)

~OCD/ANXIETY~
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder characterized by
uncontrollable, unwanted thoughts and repetitive, ritualized behaviors you feel
compelled to perform. If you have OCD, you probably recognize that your
obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors are irrational – but even so, you
feel unable to resist them and break free.
Like a needle getting stuck on an old
record, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) causes the brain to get stuck on a
particular thought or urge. For example, you may check the stove twenty times to
make sure it’s really turned off, you’re your hands until they’re scrubbed raw, or
drive around for hours to make sure that the bump you heard while driving wasn’t
a person you ran over.

~ANXIETY~
Generalized anxiety disorder (or GAD) is characterized by excessive, exaggerated anxiety and worry about everyday life events with no obvious reasons for worry. People with symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder tend to always expect disaster and can't stop worrying about health, money, family, work, or school. In people with GAD, the worry often is unrealistic or out of proportion for the situation. Daily life becomes a constant state of worry, fear, and dread. Eventually, the anxiety so dominates the person's thinking that it interferes with daily functioning, including work, school, social activities, and relationships.

~PANIC ATTACKS~
Panic disorder is different from the normal fear and anxiety reactions to stressful events in our lives. Panic disorder is a serious condition that strikes without reason or warning. Symptoms of panic disorder include sudden attacks of fear and nervousness, as well as physical symptoms such as sweating and a racing heart. During a panic attack, the fear response is out of proportion for the situation, which often is not threatening. Over time, a person with panic disorder develops a constant fear of having another panic attack, which can affect daily functioning and general quality of life.(http://www.webmd.com/anxiety-panic/guide/mental-health-panic-disorder)
