There are different types of depression. The first is biological. Some people may be predisposed due to genetics or exposure to certain chemicals or trauma at birth or in later life. The second type of depression is situational and typically resolves once the situation that is causing the depression is resolved. Both are serious conditions.
If you are in a situation that is stressful and depressing it is normal to feel strong emotions. In times like these you need support to work through the big questions of why and what can be done to resolve the situation so your life can return to normal. |
Clinical Depression is a serious, potentially life-threatening, disease and needs to be taken seriously. If you are struggling with daily activities and don't enjoy things you have typically enjoyed consider seeking medical intervention from a doctor or call 9-8-8 to get help immediately.
Research on depression found that treatment which combines both medications and talk therapy showed "superior" results when compared to medications alone. *https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3918025/ |
