Depression Therapy
You might be struggling with depression.
Depression is one of the most common mental health disorders in the United States, affecting approximately 1 in 4 adults during their lifetime. It is caused by a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors, with the most common age of onset being late teens to early adulthood.
Depression is not a weakness or a personality flaw, and it cannot be overcome by simply “snapping out of it.” It is a medical condition that significantly impairs daily functioning. Clinical depression can feel like a black, enveloping cloud that makes everyday activities seem overwhelming and pointless.
Symptoms can include:
- Loss of interest in daily activities
- Difficulty concentrating
- Feelings of self-loathing, worthlessness or guilt
- Appetite or weight changes
- Inability to experience joy or pain
- Agitation and/or irritability
- Sleep disturbances: insomnia, irregular sleep patterns or excessive sleeping
- Active or passive suicidal thoughts/plans
