Welcome
Depression can be short lived or be a pervading feeling that can last for months. Depression can affect people of any age, gender, or socio-economic standing. It causes serious changes in a person’s feelings, outlook, and can interfere with the way a person functions in their everyday life. It causes pain and suffering to the sufferer and also to those who care about them. Depression may vary from mild or temporary to severe and prolonged.
Depression has a variety of symptoms and not everyone experiences every symptom. Severity of symptoms varies with individuals and also varies over time. Do you experience any of the following symptoms?
