How can therapy help with Depression?
Everyone has experienced feelings of depression
at one time or another. These feelings commonly follow loss
or disappointment and they usually pass in a few hours or
days. However, when depressive feelings persist and interfere
with one's health, work and social well-being, some sort
of intervention or professional help is needed.
When you
see a mental health practitioner when you are experiencing
symptoms of depression, it can help by:
- Having a place to
share your feelings and explore underlying causes of your
depressed mood
- Having someone
help you monitor your depressed feelings
- Learning some
new ways of overcoming depression and regaining your energy,
optimism, and zest for life
- Helping you set
realistic goals
