Depression is a prevalent mental health issue that manifests as more than just sadness. It’s a deep-seated sense of despair that can strip away the joy from life’s activities. There are several types of depression, including Major Depressive Disorder, Persistent Depressive Disorder (dysthymia) and Seasonal Affective Disorder, which present with different intensities and durations of symptoms.
Common symptons of depression include:
People with depression may also struggle with anxiety disorders or PTSD. Exploring treatment options can improve your well-being. At Empathy Health Clinic, we provide targeted therapy for treatment-resistant depression and related conditions to help you manage symptoms and improve your daily life.
Depression can permeate every facet of life, from affecting your emotional health to complicating daily routines. Without effective therapy for major depressive disorder, you may experience diminished social connections, decreased productivity and pervasive lethargy that impact your well-being.
