Depression is a mental health disorder that affects mood, including how you feel, think, and behave. Everyone feels sad sometimes, but when it starts to affect your ability to perform daily tasks and your ability to enjoy things that typically bring you happiness, you may be suffering from depression. The symptoms of depression vary from person to person, but often include feeling miserable without a clear reason why, anxiety, agitation, insomnia or sleeping too much, hopelessness, changes in eating, and/or foggy thinking. Depression may also cause recurrent thoughts of death or suicide (or even a wish that it would all 'stop' in an abstract sense). If you think you might be suffering from depression, a qualified mental health therapist can help. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s depression experts today!

Maybe you feel stuck in a cycle of miscommunication, where every conversation turns into an argument. Perhaps trust has been broken, and you wonder if it can ever be rebuilt. Or maybe the distance between you has grown so wide that you barely recognize the person beside you. Relationships don’t struggle because of a lack of love—they struggle under the weight of unmet needs, unresolved wounds, and loneliness. But here’s the good news: healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
