Depression
Depression is a lot more than just feeling sad sometimes. It can make you feel stuck, like everything is just too much to handle, and even completely hopeless. Even simple everyday tasks can start to feel impossible when dealing with depression. Depression is a real, serious condition that many people struggle with. At The Howard Center for Wellness, we recognize how challenging depression can be. Our team will support you and help you find a path forward, even when things feel overwhelming.
Understanding Depression
Depression is a complex mental health disorder that affects people of all ages. It is not just a temporary state of sadness or a rough patch; it is a persistent feeling of emptiness that can last for weeks, months, or even years.
Common symptoms include:
- Constant fatigue.
- Loss of interest in activities.
- Changes in appetite.
- Trouble sleeping.
- Difficulty concentrating.
Some people experience physical pain without a clear cause. Others might struggle with feelings of worthlessness, guilt, or even thoughts of self-harm. There is no single cause of depression. It often stems from a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors. Depression is not a sign of weakness. It is a medical condition requiring understanding, support, and professional care.
