Depression Therapy

What does depression even look like?

Depression can look different from person to person or even the same person can experience depression in different ways at various times during their lifespan. For some, it may be difficult to get out of bed, brush your teeth, or go to work or school. For others, it may look like irritability, problems focusing, or decreased sex drive.

Some of the symptoms of depression can include:

• difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or not feeling rested upon waking up

• changes in appetite (overeating, lack of appetite)

• lack of motivation or energy

• feeling more restless than usual

• difficulty focusing or paying attention to details

• problems remembering things

• difficulty making everyday decisions

• not finding pleasure in activities that you used to enjoy

• depressed mood, irritability, or feeling down-in-the-dumps

• problems getting out of bed, brushing your teeth, showering, completing chores, going to work or school

• decreased or absent libido or sex drive

• increased feelings of guilt

• feelings of hopelessness

• suicidal thoughts with or without a plan to act upon those thoughts

• not wanting to be around others

Lyons Center’s Approach to Depression Therapy

Our therapists at Lyons Center are trained to help you find balance in all areas of your life in order to find relief from the feelings of dread, numbness, sadness, or irritability. Through our thorough assessment process, we can help you determine which areas of your life that we need to focus on in order to get you feeling better as quickly as possible. Please remember, you didn’t start feeling this way overnight and it cannot be fixed overnight.
