About

Depression is a debilitating mental health condition that impacts millions of people across all ages, genders, and cultures. It is marked by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness, often accompanied by physical symptoms such as fatigue, changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, and difficulty concentrating. Without treatment, depression can greatly hinder daily functioning, strain relationships, and diminish overall quality of life. However, with appropriate diagnosis and treatment—including therapy, medication, and support from loved ones—individuals can manage their symptoms and see improvements in their mental health. Taking the step to seek help is crucial in the journey to recovering from depression.
