Answer:

"Infernal" - from the 3 words given the closest in meaning : annoying.

Explanation:

All the words are adjectives, they modify / clarify nouns and pronouns.

Infernal: Formal english: something that belongs to the underworld of the dead, hellish or diabolic.

Informal english: something annoying or confounded. (extra annoying)

Annoying; irritating, perturbing, unwelcome, pester etc.

Fiery: A fire based object that burns strongly and brightly releasing a lot of heat. Synonyms could be flaming, blazing, ablaze, burning etc.

Unpleasant: something that causes annoyance, is disagreeable, irritable, etc

When making use of the word infernal it is used to emphasis the degree of annoyance beyond normal.

For example: I have a terrible headache caused by the infernal party noise at my neighbor´s house all night long.

Here the use of infernal goes beyond annoying (extra annoying)

Therefore, from the options provided the closest logical answer is annoying.

Hi!

You missed these few things...

You wrote, "Some of the benefits of taking this medication are that your depression is lessened or even eventually gone"

I would write, One of the many benefits of taking this medication is that your depression is lessened of even eventually gone.

You also wrote, "the mood changes"

You should capitalize the "T" in the word "The" because you started a new sentence.

You wrote, "the mood changes will be that our happier and less anxious"

I would write, You will experience happier and less anxious moods.

Now for the second paragraph you wrote, "I think people often avoid telling people of depression can vary from many different reasons"

I would write, I think people suffering with depression often avoid telling people of their depression because

"I could be chemical imbalance like low serotonin."

It could be chemical imbalance

"simple google search or people raise awareness"

Capitalize the "G" in the word "Google"
