Depression does not have any time limit. Some people are depressed only for a short while, while others suffer for many years or decades. So, only time will tell in your case.

A state of depression is very natural following a surgery and typically lasts only a short time. In some cases, however, it may be prolonged and last an indefinite amount of time if not treated.
