Life challenges can teach you that you are ineffective and that your behaviors don't have any effect on what happens in your life. And if you learn that lesson, you give up trying. You have learned helplessness.
Learned helplessness is associated with depression. It describes that quality of depression where you retreat to you bed and just give up on trying to impact the world. You give up your agency, sense of purpose, and feeling of hope and find yourself deep in a hole. Once you are down that deep, it is hard to dig your way out of it—especially if you don't even try to dig. So learned helplessness can maintain depression.
