Break Free of Your Depression - 50Minutes
Problem: certain events in life, biological predispositions or an overly stressful environment can sometimes cause an imbalance in our bodies, which then start to show signs of physical or psychological pain.
Aims: to learn to recognise the symptoms of depression in adults, surround yourself with the right people and take the time to get better.
FAQs:
Lately, I have been feeling listless and constantly exhausted. Am I depressed?
Why do women suffer from depression more often than men?
Antidepressants often have a bad reputation. Are they really safe?
Are alternative treatments effective?
How can I help a loved one who is depressed?
Is a relapse inevitable? What can I do to protect myself against it?
There are a number of signs that may indicate that we are depressed: we feel tired, we do not take pleasure in anything, and we sometimes feel no emotion, while at other times we are overwhelmed by sadness. When we are seriously affected, it is not always easy to identify the reason for this psychological pain.
