Depression therapy

Depression is a serious illness that encompasses much more than just feeling “sad”. It is a feeling of hopelessness, tiredness, emptiness and apathy that interferes with your daily life.

Causes of depression

Depression appears when sadness is constant over time and negatively affects our behaviour, our thoughts and above all our mood. It is a feeling of inner discomfort that makes it difficult or completely prevents the affected person from interacting with their environment in a positive way, even isolating themselves from friends or family, changing their life completely.

When a person becomes depressed, they start to withdraw from the little things that make them happy, even putting aside their daily tasks.

Types of depression

As with most psychological problems, with the help of a professional or through online depression therapy you can work on self-care, with our online depression help you will be able to face challenges that will give you back your motivation, and you will be able to regain the illusion of living and establish projects for the future.
