ABSTRACT: In this paper it argued that the nature of depression cannot be understood without reference to the selfconcept and the central part that it plays in the onset and maintenance of the disorder. There have of course been a wide range of approaches to the self; the psychoanalytic and cognitive approaches are of particular relevance to depression and therefore some attempt are made to identify possible points of integration between these different approaches which are normally considered to be disparate. A brief summary of some of the historical antecedents also is provided in order to set the context in which more recent approaches have been developed.
