Depression Symptoms
Polaris Counseling works closely with those who suffer from depression and its symptoms. Symptoms of depression include (but are not limited to):
- Lack of motivation
- Lack of energy, lethargic
- Sadness and tearfulness
- Irritability
- Lack of interest in activities that used to be enjoyed
- Suicidal nature or suicide attempts
- Significant unexplained weight loss or gain
- Difficulty sleeping or sleeping excessively
- Feelings of worthlessness
- Inappropriate guilt
- Reduced ability to function
- Diminished concentration
If you identify with some or all of the symptoms listed above, you may be suffering from depression. Our trained counselors will guide you through treatment, using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), journaling, and other techniques to help you identify the destructive thought patterns that make you feel sad and hopeless. From there, you will learn how to reframe your thoughts in a rational, realistic and positive way. This will help you cope with your day-to-day problems, without returning back to your depressed thought patterns.
