Understanding Depression

Depression is a complex mental health disorder that transcends occasional feelings of sadness. It can significantly impair daily functioning, affecting one’s emotions, physical health, and overall quality of life. Recognizing the symptoms is the first step towards seeking help and finding a path to recovery.

Key Symptoms of Depression:

• Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood
• Feelings of hopelessness or pessimism
• Irritability and restlessness
• Loss of interest in hobbies or activities once enjoyed
• Fatigue and decreased energy, making even small tasks feel exhausting
