Depression hurts.

It is more than just having a bad or down day on occasion. Every day it is a low that cannot be explained. It is a struggle to just breathe on the worst days, but mainly it is just an overwhelming feeling of…nothingness.

You know that you are sleeping too much and are totally checked out of your life.

The people who are close to you say that they understand, but you can see the look of confusion and disconnect in their eyes.

Just snap out of it.

You TRY every day to get up and put on the happy face in order to look normal. Your life seems fine, but you don’t feel fine.

No one really wants to talk about it and may even stop asking how you are doing. They don’t know what to say or do anymore.

Counseling can help you overcome depression.

Thoughts can get stuck in a negative cycle and cognitive behavioral therapy can help you to shift to new perspectives to feel improved moods.

Meditation and mindfulness training are highly effective ways to help with releasing feelings of depression and allowing you to feel relief.
