Depression

Am I depressed, or do I have depression?

“Depression” is a word that is tossed around easily but is often misunderstood. Being depressed and having depression are two very different things.

Is it situational or from within? For instance, if you won $1,000,000, do most of your issues disappear? Either way, that speaks volumes.

You can feel depressed and sad for a few days. But when you have depression, there’s just no escaping from it.

Depression has a devastating impact.

Depression impacts every aspect of your life, but it affects everyone differently.

You may sleep too much or not at all, binge eat or have no appetite. You may feel angry and irritable for no reason. Maybe you turn to destructive habits, which can distract you from the pain momentarily, but amplifies your sadness long-term.

It’s so hard living with depression, and you can’t just will it away. You know, because you tried that.

There is help.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Together, we can work on strategies to help you manage your situation.

We’ll develop a plan that works for your specific needs, and one step at a time, forge a path forward to a happier and more fulfilled you.

Sometimes, it’s easy to know why you are depressed. Sometimes, it’s more elusive.

Understanding what you feel is important, and knowing why you feel that way is even more so.

Together, we will get to the source of your issue(s) and make the changes you need for real long-term mental health and a much better connection with yourself.

No matter who comes and goes in your life, you will always have yourself – learning to make your own relationship with yourself is everything.

Don’t wait another moment struggling alone.

The ability to step back and ‘zoom out’ for a clearer picture can make life’s trials more manageable.

Life will still have moments of pain and sadness, but it doesn’t have to control you – you will be able to control your emotions.
