Depressive Disorder
You and I Changed Expression.
Depression could be considered a heavy cloud, shutting off thought, energy, and joy. I consider this being depression if it interferes with your sleeping, appetite, motivation, relationships, and even your purpose in life. Sometimes it is just a matter of getting through the day. Whoever bears this feeling must know that they are not feeble, broken, or alone. Help can come in, recovery is possible.
I am Ms.Kripa, a qualified psychologist with a commitment to helping people understand and suffer remission of depression. In those moments of profound sorrow when you experience numbness or burn-out, I offer a caring atmosphere for being heard and supported and educated on the path of developing healthy emotions.
Common Symptoms of Depression:
There is a sense of persistent sadness, feeling emptiness combined with utter hopelessness
*Loss of interests in things that probably used to bring joy
*Feeling tired; hardly any energy left, even after a day full of rest
*Disturbance in sleeping or waking, too much or too little being eaten
*Difficulty in concentration or making decisions
*Feelings of worthlessness and excessive guilt
*Withdrawal from relationships
*Thoughts of harming oneself or suicide
(If you are at risk of life-threatening, rush to emergency assistance, or call for a suicide crisis line.)
How Counseling Can Help:
Uncover the genuine causes of depression
*Allow yourself to experience the painful feelings in a safe setting
*Work on developing healthy ways of coping and thinking about things
*Create new-found self-worth, meaning, and hope
*Small achievable steps on the healing path
*Greater day-to-day functioning and more satisfying relationships
Ms.Kripa’s therapy directs focus on building long-term emotional resiliency, not just symptom reduction
