5 Early Symptoms of Depression + My Experience Overcoming Depression

Depression is said to be like a cold that settles in the head.

If depression is left untreated, it can deteriorate the mind just like a severe cold.

I'll talk about five early symptoms of depression and my experience with treatment.

 

The cause of depression has not yet been clearly identified, but

It is known that various factors are at play.

In my case, I experienced depression while dealing with parenting stress.

 

 

 

 

Five early signs of depression

1. Subtle and unclear change

2. Physical symptoms

Changes in daily life over three days

Emotional fluctuations

5 Negative Thoughts

 

Initially, rather than feeling clearly depressed, I experienced more irritability and often got angry at my family.

The second physical change was that I couldn't sleep well at all, and I lost my appetite.

Perhaps because of that, my concentration decreased, and I lost motivation, making the days feel long and I disliked being around people. As I continued to live like that, I suddenly experienced a change in weight. I lost weight rapidly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, I ended up visiting the neurology and psychiatry department.

These days, there are many psychiatric clinics around.

So I described my symptoms and had a consultation, and I started medication treatment.

Visited initially, then visited once a week to get prescriptions and sleep well.

They also prescribed sleep aids together.

Then gradually, I started to feel better and experienced an improvement in my quality of life.

 

If you are feeling depressed, do not hesitate to reach out.

I hope you receive treatment for depression.

There is an easy way, but hiding your pain due to social judgment or prejudice can make things even harder.
