A large number of people are suffering from depression across the globe. It’s not as simple as we may think. There are many underlying causes for the development of a depressive ailment. You may experience a sudden loss of interest in day to day activities, deteriorating sexual interest, crying spells, suicidal ideas stemming from the loss of meaning in everything.

There is a feeling of “life is not worth living”.

Many people who suffer from depression may also experience feelings of anxiety, anger, guilt, sadness, helplessness or a mixture of feelings that are hard to identify. The feelings that, “no one ever listens to me or no one would ever notice if I wasn’t there”, maybe early signs of depression being covered by other feelings.

Psychotherapy can help you break the cycle and develop effective coping skills and help you rediscover immense potentials for meaningful living.
