Depression

Depression is a highly prevalent mental health concern that is characterized by a low/depressed mood, change in thought patterns, decrease in energy, and the general vigor towards life. Depression curbs a person’s motivation and interest, ultimately interfering with their ability to function in their everyday life.

What are its symptoms?

While a general feeling of sadness is what is associated with depression, it is a lot more than that. Below are some symptoms that can help identify the signs of depression:

  • A lingering feeling of fatigue and exhaustion that does not respond to sleep and rest.

  • Negative feelings regarding oneself such as pessimism and consistent hopelessness.

  • Trouble attaining and retaining sleep, or sleeping for uncharacteristically longer periods of time.

  • Unexplainable aches and discomfort that persist, often accompanied by a constant state of restlessness.

  • Recurring thoughts of self-harm or suicidal ideation, that may or may not be acted upon.

How can we help?

Depression is a tough experience to brave, and can sometimes feel lonely and incapacitating. Seeking a mental health professional can not only ease the symptoms that are chipping away at your wellbeing, but also help make sense of the complex manifestations that depression brings about.
