Depression

Common Symptoms

Depression and high-functioning depression can sometimes be difficult to recognize, especially when individuals are able to maintain their daily responsibilities. Here are some symptoms that people with depression may experience:

  • Persistent feelings of emptiness or numbness

  • Difficulty concentrating or making decisions

  • Changes in sleep patterns (insomnia or oversleeping)

  • Loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities

  • Constant fatigue or low energy

  • Unexplained physical aches and pains

  • Perfectionism or setting unrealistically high standards

  • Excessive self-criticism or feelings of worthlessness

  • Irritability or a short temper

  • Social withdrawal or canceling plans frequently

  • Difficulty experiencing joy, even during positive events

  • Changes in appetite or weight

  • Using work or busyness as a coping mechanism

  • Persistent worry or anxiety

  • Neglecting self-care or personal hygiene

If you're experiencing several of these symptoms for an extended period, it's important to reach out for professional help. Remember, seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. Our therapists are here to help you navigate these feelings and develop effective coping strategies.
