Depression

Let’s delve deeper..

Symptoms

The symptoms of depression can range from mild to severe and typically affect an individual’s ability to function normally. Key symptoms include:

• Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood
• Feelings of hopelessness, or pessimism
• Irritability
• Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness
• Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities
• Decreased energy or fatigue
• Moving or talking more slowly
• Difficulty sleeping, early-morning awakening, or oversleeping
• Appetite and/or weight changes
• Thoughts of death or suicide, or suicide attempts
• Difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions
• Unexplained physical problems, such as back pain or headaches

Recognizing these symptoms early and seeking treatment is critical to managing depression effectively.

Problems

Depression can lead to numerous physical and psychological problems that extend beyond feelings of sadness. These include:

• Physical health decline: Chronic pain, fatigue, and changes in sleep patterns and appetite can significantly impair physical health and lead to chronic health conditions.
• Social withdrawal: Depression often causes withdrawal from social interactions which can exacerbate feelings of isolation and loneliness.
• Performance issues at work or school: Decreased concentration and motivation can affect productivity and performance, impacting professional and academic achievement.
• Substance abuse: Many individuals with depression may turn to alcohol or drugs as a way to self-medicate, leading to substance abuse issues.
• Severe outcomes: In severe cases, untreated depression can lead to suicidal thoughts and behaviors, requiring immediate intervention.

At Mounam Medical and De-Addiction Center, our treatment programs address these challenges comprehensively, aiming to restore overall health and well-being.
