Depression is now known as “the plague of the 21st century”. Research shows that, in fact, it is a disease that can be treated like any other disease.
But the first step to getting rid of the problem is to understand whether you really suffer from depression or are just going through a difficult time in your life. For this, some alerts can help you identify the disease correctly.
O awesome.club shows, in this post, the most common signs of depression, to make you aware of the need or not to see a doctor.
You feel run down/tired
The lack of energy lasts for many days in a row, even if your routine hasn’t changed much. You feel tired from the moment you wake up.
You feel useless and believe you don’t deserve to be alive
You might start to believe it’s useless. You may also have suicidal thoughts and not be afraid of death, as you cannot find meaning in life.
Concentration and memory problems
You start forgetting important things and can’t easily remember a name or a phone number. Listening to someone talking or reading a book becomes a challenge as you can no longer concentrate on what you are reading or what is happening around you.
sleep problems
Even after a long night in bed, you feel like you still need more rest. Also, you have no energy and feel like you can spend the whole day sleeping.
your weight changes
Suddenly gain a few pounds or lose weight for no apparent reason. You may also develop a huge appetite and feel constantly hungry no matter how much you eat. Another symptom is to stop feeling hungry.
nothing gives you pleasure
Even the things, activities, and people you used to love don’t add joy to your life. You are constantly bored, tired and don’t feel like enjoying your favorite hobby or visiting your best friend.
Your mood is in tatters
You feel downright sad, anxious, or irritable and you can’t pinpoint the exact reason why.
Your health deteriorates
You suddenly start to feel discomfort or pain more often in your joints or back and have digestive problems. None of them have an easy to explain reason (such as trauma or a greasy lunch) and the symptoms do not go away with the usual medical treatment.
Keep in mind that for depression to be a symptom, all of these conditions must be ongoing. If you or a member of your family or a friend shows signs of depression, it is worth consulting a doctor to indicate appropriate treatment.
What is the treatment for depression? Can it be avoided?
Depending on the patient’s particular situation, the doctor may recommend therapy or medication or even both. Treatment may also include recommendations to perform some additional physical activity, light therapy, pet therapy, electrical or magnetic simulation, among other types of treatment.
There are a number of studies that attempt to provide preventative methods for depression. One suggests that some forms of depression, especially so-called seasonal depression (which intensifies during cold and cloudy weather) can be treated by taking vitamin D — produced by the body from exposure to the sun. However, do not start taking medication without consulting a doctor.
Experts recommend that people at risk of suffering from depression see specialists regularly. Any disease is easier to fight, if observed from its initial stage.
Have you noticed any of these symptoms in yourself or your loved ones? Maybe it’s time to consider visiting a specialist.
