Understanding Depression:
Hope and Healing through Personalized Care
Depression is one of the most common mental illnesses in the US and the world. This mental illness affects how one feels, thinks, and acts. It comes with feelings of intense sadness and a loss of interest in once beloved activities. The good news is that depression is also highly treatable. There are several forms of treatment that prove to help individuals manage depression symptoms, including depression therapy, medication, and self-care. Treatment is decided on a case by case basis—one individual might benefit from medication and therapy, while another individual might best benefit from a combination of therapy and self-care.

What are Common Signs of Depression?
Depression isn’t a straightforward illness. Virtually, every individual that develops depression has a unique experience. For example, some people experience physical disruptions like fatigue, muscle tightness, and trouble sleeping. Others, though, experience only mental and emotional symptoms like sadness, loneliness, and guilt. Still, others might experience all of the above!
Here is a comprehensive list of common depression symptoms:
Therapy for Depression: How Does it Work?
Depression therapy is very effective in treating this disorder and helping people get back to living the lives they know and love. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a common approach in depression therapy, as it focuses on helping individuals to change their negative thinking patterns, which then enable them to change their problematic behaviors. Additionally, depression therapists help their clients to manage their symptoms, get to the root of what may have caused their depression, and reminding them of their value.
“If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.”
—Fred Rogers
Combining Therapy with Self-Care and Medication for Lasting Well-Being
Sometimes, therapy is used in conjunction with other treatments, of which we mentioned above: medication and/or self-care strategies. Antidepressants can help to relieve symptoms of depression, and self-care can help one to improve their overall wellbeing. Your depression therapist at LifewRx can help you find self-care techniques that you can engage in, enjoy, and benefit from.
