"You are worthy of love, kindness, and understanding, especially from yourself."
What is Depression?
Depression can feel like an overwhelming sense of sadness. A feeling of total lack of motivation and pleasure in things we once enjoyed. Some people experience depression solely because of a situation, like the loss of a loved one, pet or a career coming to an end, or a relationship ending. Other people can feel depression on a more continual basis and can make even simple decisions or interactions seem overwhelming.
Sometimes depression can cause physical symptoms, such as inability to sleep or eat and can cause people to isolate and not want to be around social environments. All this makes it difficult to function in your day-to-day life.
Why Seek Help For Depression?
Depression can be difficult to manage on your own. Depression can make you feel unmotivated, lost, and uncomfortable both physically and emotionally.
