Depression & Mood

Depression is a serious mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a loss of interest in activities. It can affect various aspects of a person's life, including their mood, thoughts, behaviors, and physical health. People with depression may experience symptoms such as fatigue, changes in appetite, difficulty concentrating, sleep disturbances, feelings of worthlessness, and thoughts of suicide. Depression can impact relationships, work performance, and overall quality of life. Individuals with depression may struggle to engage in daily activities, have difficulty maintaining relationships, and may isolate themselves from others. It can also lead to feelings of guilt, self-blame, and a sense of being stuck in a cycle of negative thoughts and emotions. It's important for someone experiencing symptoms of depression to seek support from a mental health professional, as treatment options such as therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes can help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being.
