therapy for depression treatment in manhattan
you don't need to snap out of it, you need a support system to help you through it.
You know sadness is a normal part of life and that's why you did not notice the depression symptoms at first. Chalking up the lack of interest in your usual hobbies and activities to being in a funk or just having a bad day. You thought you would ‘snap out of it’, but then days turned into weeks and then months. When did things that came easy become so hard? You just want things to go back to how they were before.
The things that used to be so easy now feel impossible, like keeping up with friends, keeping a clean apartment, or even doing your morning routine. You don’t feel connected to yourself or the world around you. You’re feeling more irritable and less tolerant of others around you and find yourself crying frequently. This leads you to think "What's the point?" when you do try to engage in activities that used to make you happy. You miss the easier times when things didn’t feel so heavy.
You are finding it harder to stay focused and motivated to accomplish even the smallest tasks of everyday life.
You've lost interest in activities you once enjoyed.
You're constantly fatigued, even after a full night's sleep.
You find it hard to concentrate or make decisions.
You've started to withdraw from friends and family.
Tasks that were once easy now feel insurmountable.
You feel empty or indifferent most of the time.
You constantly feel like you're not good enough.

For many individuals, a combination of biological and environmental factors contribute to the onset of their depression.

- Loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable
- Feelings of sadness, emptiness, and hopelessness
- Lack of energy or fatigue
- Changes in sleeping patterns
- Unexplained aches and pains
