Depression Therapists in Troy, MI—Oakland Counseling for Depression

Feelings of hopelessness. A lack of motivation. Disinterest. Disconnect. Exhaustion. This is a mere glimpse at what it’s like to be depressed. Depression, in a nutshell, is a ruthless mental health condition. It can strike without a moment’s notice or develop over a gradual period of time. Depression comes with a persistent feeling of sadness or despair and a lack of interest in day to day living.

If one of your friends or family members were feeling this way, you’d want them to find the right help. This might mean leaning on you for support at times, but it’ll likely involve working closely with a mental health professional, such as a depression therapist. The reality is that we can try to help others who are experiencing symptoms of depression, but true healing will come with the intervention of a professional.

I found that with depression, one of the most important things you can realize is that you’re not alone. You’re not the first to go through it, you’re not gonna be the last to go through it. –Dwayne Johnson

Depression Symptoms: What Does It Feel Like to Be Depressed?

We started to detail what it feels like to be depressed, but depression isn’t just mental and emotional—it’s often physical too. In addition to the feelings of hopelessness, lack of motivation, disinterest, disconnect, exhaustion, depression can make sleeping difficult; it can cause you to lose your appetite and weight; it can cause stomach aches and other physical pains. Here is a more comprehensive list of the symptoms you might experience if you’re depressed:

  • A feeling of sadness or despair that doesn’t go away
  • Loss of interest in day to day life
  • Sleeping difficulties, such as insomnia or hypersomnia
  • Appetite and weight changes
  • Withdrawal from others
  • Feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness
  • Low self-esteem
  • Loss of focus
  • Moodiness
  • Social isolation and loneliness
  • Fatigue
  • Suicidal thoughts

The exact presentation of depression can vary from one individual to the next. For example, one person might struggle the most with a lack of focus, withdrawal from others, and feelings of hopelessness. Another individual might struggle more with a low self-esteem, fatigue, and moodiness.

Now, if you are exhibiting the first two symptoms—a feeling of sadness or despair that persists and a loss of interest in life—and several others on this list, you might be depressed. So, be sure to talk to a mental health professional, such as a depression therapist, to put together a plan for managing this illness and moving forward.
