Depression and Anxiety

Depression and Counselling

​​Depression is more than simply feeling unhappy or fed up for a few days. Most people go through periods of feeling low but depression is marked by periods of persistent sadness which might last for weeks or months. People can feel sad or empty, they might lose interest in daily activities. In some cases people may think about suicide​.

Symptoms of depression can also include:
  • Difficulties sleeping
  • Sleeping too much
  •  Anxiety
  • Anger
  • Unexplained physical symptoms such as migraines and muscle pain,
  • Changes in eating, for example overeating or food avoidance.
  • Feeling that life is just not worth living
  • Sadness
​
Depression can take many forms - you may have some difficulty dealing with daily jobs or tasks that used to be easy.
Maybe getting out of bed is difficult at times, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and a feeling of being alone even if those around you try to help. Perhaps even old pleasures have lost their shine.
Perhaps the people around you just don't understand or you feel unable to talk to them as they are dealing with their own problems, or simply are not sympathetic to your problems
If depression is affecting your life, counselling can give you a space to talk and sort through your emotions

Anxiety and Counselling

​Anxiety is one of the most common psychological problems for which people seek counselling.

​Anxiety symptoms can include:
  • Worry
  • Panic 
  • Social anxiety 
  • Health anxiety 
  • Agoraphobia
 
Counselling can help to unpick these feelings and help to make you feel less alone.
