While there is nothing wrong with feeling sad occasionally when there is a reason for it, you may need to worry if the negative thoughts persist.
A depressed person will no longer care about activities they previously liked and will find it difficult to enjoy any daily activities and tasks.
Sleeping too little or too much is a common sign of depression - moreover, depression may be the cause of exhaustion after a healthy eight hours of sleep.
If you are depressed, you will find it impossible to focus on your duties which is particularly dangerous for people whose jobs require a high level of responsibility.
Unwanted images and thoughts that appear in the person’s brain and do not let them be at peace may indicate the need for depression therapy.
If you are sick, certain symptoms, such as headache or neck pain, are expected. However, if a physician cannot pinpoint the reason for a specific symptom, it may have been caused by a mental disorder.
For more than twelve years our mental health facility has been welcoming patients to cope with the symptoms of mental health disorders.
Some mental health issues remain untreated especially when all focus is directed to depression - we will figure out if the patient needs extra help with other issues.
After a comprehensive assessment, we will be able to develop treatment options and strategies suitable for you.
A patient that comes to us for help will not be isolated from their family and friends - on the contrary, we will encourage your loved ones to participate in your recovery whenever possible.
