what is depression?
Depression is a common and serious medical illness that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think, and how you act. Fortunately, it is also treatable. Depression causes feelings of sadness and/or a loss of interest in activities once enjoyed. It can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems and can decrease a person’s ability to function at work or at home.
about depression
Most people feel depressed at some point in their lives. Losing a loved one, getting fired from a job, going through a divorce, and other difficult situations can cause a person to feel sad, frustrated, lonely, scared, nervous, or anxious. These feelings are normal reactions to life’s stress. But in some cases, you may experience these feelings daily or nearly daily, sometimes for no apparent reason, making it difficult to carry on with normal, everyday functioning.
The good news is that depression is very treatable, either on its own or when paired with anxiety. At Hello Therapy, our therapists help to effectively treat depression through the use of many evidence-based psychological practices and the forming of a safe and compassionate therapeutic relationship. It can be difficult and painful to work on these feelings, but rest assured that it is done in a warm, welcoming, and non-judgemental environment to help find ways to work on these symptoms and improve your overall quality of life.
