Depression can affect anyone of any age and is one of the most common conditions in the general population, with everyone experiencing a bout of it at least once in their lives. Whether depression is an ongoing condition that you must battle with every day or is fleeting low moods as a result of some life changes that need to be dealt with, our depression counselling in London can help you to overcome the difficulties that depression can bring.
Feeling sad, miserable, down, or unmotivated can be more than just an emotional feeling and can start to impact everyday tasks, relationships, and overall functionality. If left untreated, it can start to result in poor work performance, difficulty finding fulfilment in day-to-day tasks and friendships becoming strained.
Depression symptoms can include:
- Feeling sad, upset or unhappy
- Lack of motivation, enthusiasm and pleasure
- Difficulties in concentration
- Pessimism, negative thoughts or crying
- Sleep problems such as waking too early or insomnia
- Withdrawal from normally pleasurable activities
- Loss of sex drive
- Changes in appetite
- Suicidal thoughts
