Depression
Compassionate support for persistent low mood and hopelessness
Understanding Depression
Depression is more than feeling sad — it is a persistent low mood that can drain energy, interest, and hope from daily life. It affects people of all ages and backgrounds, and is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. With the right support, depression is treatable and recovery is possible.

Common questions
Is depression just sadness?
No. Depression is a clinical condition that affects how you think, feel, and function. Sadness is a normal emotion; depression is persistent, pervasive, and often without an obvious cause.
Can therapy help if I am also on medication?
Absolutely. Research consistently shows that therapy combined with medication is more effective than either alone for moderate-to-severe depression.
How do I know if I need professional help?
If low mood has persisted for more than two weeks, is affecting your work, relationships, or daily functioning, or if you are having thoughts of self-harm, please reach out to a professional.
