Feeling Suicidal Right Now?
Call Lifeline 13 11 14 If you are in crisis, call them now. |
Depression, like anxiety has its roots in a number of places. It can drain our resources and fatigue us to the point of not wanting to face the world, and in its worst form, present in suicidal thoughts. Yet, there is much that can be done, just by reaching out for help, and support. You are not alone, and if you book in for counselling, you will be met by someone who themselves, have experienced depression.
Depression can be caused by life events, personal factors, changes in the brain and a combination of one or more of the afore-mentioned. Added to this, there are different types of depression. If you find that you simply cannot switch yourself out of the mood using your usual strategies i.e. talking to a friend, listening to music or just doing the usual things you do to cheer yourself up, it could be time to talk to your friendly counsellor. When we work with depression, we always look at the different layers of you, and your life, to see where this can stem from, what your needs are and where it comes from. There is much that can be done to better understand how to deal with depression outside of using medications. That said, if you are on medication, we always start where you are and work in conjunction with your medical professional to work through the presenting issues. We work together to find your way out of depression and to keep you out of depression. Call Nikki today. Back to Counselling Home |
