Depression
Persistent sadness, emptiness or loss of interest that lingers for weeks - depression is common, treatable, and not a sign of weakness.
What is depression?
Depression is far more than feeling low for a day or two. It is a genuine medical condition that affects how you feel, think, sleep, eat and function – sometimes quietly, for weeks or months at a time.
It can touch anyone, regardless of age or circumstance, and it is never something you simply “snap out of”. With the right support, the heaviness lifts and life regains its colour.
Do these feel familiar?
You do not need to have every sign. If a few of these resonate, it is worth a gentle conversation.
- Persistent low mood or sadness
- Loss of interest in things you once enjoyed
- Fatigue or low energy
- Changes in sleep or appetite
- Difficulty concentrating or deciding
- Feelings of guilt or worthlessness
- Withdrawing from people
- Thoughts that life is not worth it
