EFFECTIVE WAYS TO OVERCOME DEPRESSION Depression (major depressive disorder or clinical depression) is a common but serious mood disorder. It causes severe symptoms that affect how you feel, think, and handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working. Some forms of depression are slightly different, or they may develop under unique circumstances, such as: 1. Persistent depressive disorder (also called dysthymia) 2. Perinatal depression is much more serious than the “baby blues” 3. Psychotic depression (Delusion) 4. Seasonal affective disorder 5. Bipolar disorder. Signs and Symptoms . 1. Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood 2. Feelings of hopelessness, or pessimism 3. Irritability 4. Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness 5. Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities 6. Decreased energy or fatigue 7. Moving or talking more slowly 8. Feeling restless or having trouble sitting still 9. Difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions 10. Difficulty sleeping, early-morning awakening, or oversleeping 11. Appetite and/or weight changes 12. Thoughts of death or suicide, or suicide attempts. N. B: Not everyone who is depressed experiences every symptom. Some people experience only a few symptoms while others may experience many. Who fall in the "Risk Factor group" ? Individuals with the following: ** Personal or family history of depression ** Major life changes, trauma, or stress ** Certain physical illnesses and medications Treatment(s). Even the most severe depression cases can be treated. The earlier it's detected, the more effective the treatment. Depression is usually treated with medications , psychotherapy , or a combination of the two. If these treatments do not reduce symptoms, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) and other brain stimulation therapies may be options to explore. 1. Medication Antidepressants are medicines that treat depression. They may help improve the way your brain uses certain chemicals that control mood or stress. 2. Psychotherapy Several types of psychotherapy (also called “talk therapy” or, in a less specific form, counseling) can help people with depression. Examples of evidence-based approaches specific to the treatment of depression include cognitive- behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy (IPT), and problem-solving therapy. 3. Brain Stimulation Therapy If medications do not reduce the symptoms of depression, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) may be an option to explore. Based on the latest research: ECT can provide relief for people with severe depression who have not been able to feel better with other treatments. Beyond Treatment Things You Can Do that may help you or a loved one during treatment for depression: 1. Try to be active and exercise. 2. Set realistic goals for yourself. 3. Try to spend time with other people and confide in a trusted friend or relative. READ ALL HERE http://yourhealthdone..co.ke/2017/03/effective-ways-to-overcome-depression.html?m=1 |
