Depression is a clinical mental health disorder that Impacts a person's thought, mood, general beliefs about life and self deeply and makes a person experiences behavioral and personality changes that cause a lot of disruption.

 

Why does Depression set in?

Many things can cause it.

Life difficulties, relationship troubles, financial and work related issues, deep personal setbacks, losing a loved one, being through stressful situations, being lonely can have an impact in causing depression.

Genetics and family history also plays a role. If someone in your family had depression or mental health difficulties, it predisposed you to the risk of having mental health issues especially when situational factors also are tough and painful.

 

What you should do if you have symptoms of Depression?

1. Never ignore. It's not ok to live with so much hopelessness, pain, difficulty. It will impact your happiness further, and it will cause more issues in life, in work and impact life like a vicious cycle.

2. Speak to someone you trust: Open up about how you are feeling with someone you can trust, someone you can speak to, about your pain and hurt. 

3. Definitely seek professional help: Life challenges can cause it but depression should not be left on "When things get better, it will resolve on its own". Depression causes deep seated changes of how you think and feel about yourself and you need to treat and manage this independently from life issues. Much like you won't leave a diabetes issue untreated, never leave depression untreated. You can start with taking a screening online and Consulting a psychologist.

Many times one also needs medicine along with therapy and psychiatrists are there. It's important to get active on treating depression.

 

No matter what happened in your life, it's not ok for you to be in a state and continue feeling so hopeless and less about yourself. It's not ok to ignore painful thoughts about self as routine.
