DEPRESSION

Depression is a serious mental health issue affecting about one in five U.S. adults. It causes persistent sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in activities. Beyond mental health, it can also lead to physical problems like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.

Depression is often accompanied by other serious mental and physical health issues, such as:

Anxiety The constant feeling of worry and fear that often accompanies depression.

Substance Abuse Some adults turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with the symptoms of depression.

Eating Disorders Conditions like anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder can develop as a result of depression.

Heart Disease Depression can lead to an unhealthy lifestyle, which in turn increases the risk of heart diseases.

Insomnia Many people with depression struggle with insomnia, which can exacerbate mental health conditions.

Infertility Depression can affect hormonal balance, making it difficult for women to conceive.

Digestive Issues Conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome are often linked to depression.

Chronic Pain Depression often magnifies the feelings of pain.

Depending on the severity of your condition, your doctor might suggest different treatments, such as psychotherapy, medication, or even hospitalization.

Treatment may include therapy, medication, or lifestyle changes, depending on your needs.
