Why get Professional Treatment for Depression?

We all feel low from time to time; circumstances or events in life can bring you down, but how do you distinguish between sadness and serious depression – and why would you seek professional help?

What are the signs and what can be done?

If you suffer from a number of the following symptoms for longer than a couple of weeks you may be suffering from depression:

  • Feelings of helplessness or hopelessness
  • Loss of interest in daily activities
  • Appetite or weight changes
  • Sleep changes
  • Anger or irritability
  • Loss of energy
  • Self-loathing
  • Reckless behavior
  • Problems concentrating
  • Unexplained aches and pains

Signs of depression vary but if you suffer persistent feelings of hopelessness and despair, you feel empty and numb and sometimes find it tough just to get through a day, you may be a victim of this common, debilitating mood disorder. Depression affects how you feel, think, and function on a daily basis. It can interfere with your work, your studies, your eating habits, and affect your sleep pattern. It can have an impact on every aspect of your life. If untreated it can become a serious health condition and you may have suicidal thoughts and be at risk of self-harm.

Anyone can become clinically depressed. You may be genetically predisposed to suffer depression or you may have had particular life experiences which have brought it on. You may have been suffering for such a long time that you almost accept it as a normal way of being. It can be difficult to motivate yourself to seek treatment for depression. You may have tried to help yourself by making lifestyle changes, trying techniques you have read about, etc., but it can be difficult without the help of mental health professionals. There is a huge variety of tried and tested ways to help someone recover from depression and at Casa Recovery in San Juan Capistrano, CA we would welcome the chance to find one that works for you.
