Everyone experiences occasional sadness, frustrations, and feelings of self-doubt. These are human experiences that we can all relate to. Experiencing clinical depression goes beyond the occasional experience of sadness to be a state that persists for long periods of time. Major depression goes even beyond this.

If you have noticed yourself feeling sad, hopeless, having a loss of interest in life’s activities, or having angry outbursts and these feelings have gone on you may be experiencing Major Depression. This is a form of severe and persistent depression. There are many signs and symptoms but they are experienced in a way that makes general functioning difficult.

For example, the inability to leave bed or perform hygiene tasks. Suicidal ideation and even attempts can be a very difficult experience for those with this disorder. If you are experiencing this you know how painful it can be. We want to reduce that level of pain for you. The most profound thing you can do for yourself during this time is to reach out for support.
