Therapy for Depression
Have you experienced a loss of pleasure or meaning in life? Do you feel hopeless, helpless, or lost? Has your energy begun to dwindle, making even the simplest day-to-day activities feel impossible? Have you had changes in your appetite or your sex life?
If so, you may be struggling with depression – and we can help.
Depression is one of the most common mental health issue in the United States as well as one of the leading reasons for disability. Left unaddressed, depression can derail relationships, careers, and personal health.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
Behavioral Medicine Partners offers individual therapy for adults from all over the area because no one should have to deal with depression alone. Contact us today to get started. Or, to learn more about depression and how therapy can help, read on!
Do I need therapy for depression?
Many people mistake depression for other health issues, because depression isn’t just an emotional issue – it also affects you physically, cognitively, and socially.
Let’s talk about some of the main warning signs:
* Safety is the highest priority. If you or a loved one are experiencing these thoughts, contact the crisis line (630-627-1700) and/or call 911 to get immediate assistance.
If you or a loved one struggle with any of these warning signs, don’t wait – contact us today to get the support you need.
How can therapy for depression help?
Depression tends to make itself worse over time.
The less energy you have, the less motivated you feel to do the things you love. The less you feel motivated, the more you will feel hopeless about the future and overwhelmed. As you feel worse, you’ll be more likely to withdraw from others or try to self-soothe with distractions, food, or alcohol, which then makes you have even less energy.
We call this the downward spiral of depression, and it explains why so many people become slowly depressed over time.
Fortunately, psychotherapy is incredibly effective for helping people disrupt depression’s spiral. You can learn to overcome your symptoms, feel seen and heard, and move forward with a life worth living.
If you or a loved one are ready to give therapy for depression a try, Behavioral Medicine Partners is here for you.
