If everything feels heavy right now, you are not alone, and this can get better. Depression is one of the most treatable mental health conditions, and reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness.
What does depression feel like?
Depression is more than a passing low mood. It's a persistent feeling of sadness, emptiness or loss of interest that lasts for weeks and affects how you sleep, eat, think and cope with daily life. It can happen to anyone, and it responds well to caring, evidence-based treatment.
Common signs
- Low mood or sadness most of the day
- Losing interest or pleasure in things you used to enjoy
- Changes in sleep, appetite or energy
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
- Feelings of guilt, worthlessness or hopelessness
