Depression Treatment

Depression is often hard to identify in many people, especially adults. The symptoms of depression vary from one person to another. As is true for any other behavioral disorder, it is important to keep a close watch on the changes in your day-to-day functioning. Depression and its associated symptoms can vary from person to person depending on the trigger event. The trigger can be anything ranging from substance abuse to genetic predispositions, etc. Here are some signs that you must look for if you or someone you love is suffering from depression.

Signs of Depression

  1. A sudden loss of interest in all activities that were once cherished
  2. Sudden, unwarranted changes in sleep patterns
  3. An uncontrollable feeling of sadness marked by fluctuations in mood
  4. Difficult to focus
  5. Overwhelming feelings of guilt or shame
  6. Fluctuation in energy levels, loss of enthusiasm, and feeling unmotivated
  7. Unusual loss or gain in weight and change in eating habits
  8. Increased tendency of self-harm
  9. Persistent hopelessness and helplessness

Understanding the Root Cause of Depression

  1. Genetic predispositions like a family history of depression or suicide
  2. Drug abuse including intoxicating substances like alcohol, narcotics, and amphetamines
  3. Witnessing a traumatic event that is hard to cope with, including death of loved ones, accidents, chronic or terminal medical conditions, war, natural disasters, etc.
  4. Head injury, or an accident leading to a concussion
  5. Chronic or long-lasting stress
  6. Strain in personal and important relationships.

Depression has a widespread impact on our society. As is true for any other mental health condition, depression is also unique to each individual because of unique circumstances. Treatment at Malibu, CA is customized for each patient and can have a life changing impact. The devastating effects of depression can be seen in the untimely deaths of so many public faces- celebrities, musicians, and artists. Depression is the largest cause of disability in adults aged between 15-44 in the United States, according to a study by the “Anxiety and Depression Association of America”.
