Reconnect with your better self
Depression can occur suddenly or gradually; in response to difficult life circumstances or 'out of the blue'; and can vary in severity and symptoms. Some of us may be able to do everything we usually do but feel low energy, flat or find it difficult to concentrate. Others find it difficult to get out of bed, dress, eat and take care of ourselves.
Psychological therapy (with or without medication) is the only long-term effective treatment for Depression according to research.
Psychological therapy will help you manage depressive thinking; engage in behaviour that is proven to lift mood; improve your interpersonal relationships; improve your sleep; help you make any changes necessary to feel good about your life; and help you feel better about yourself, more hopeful about your future and prevent a relapse of Depression.
