Did You Know that Depression is a Disease?

It is natural and normal for every person to have low moods like sadness, losing interest in things, and feeling tired, which you may have experienced at some point in life. However, when these states of mind prolong, it may be considered depression. Depression is caused by various life events like the loss of a job and the death of a loved one and can occur for days, weeks, months, and even years. Thriving Mind Psychology are specialists in conducting all available forms of treatment to manage depression. Below are candidates who are most affected by depression.

Who are mostly affected by depression?

Depression is common to both males and females. According to the Center for Disease Control, females are more affected by depression than males. Women suffer depressions like premenstrual dysphoric and postpartum depression. On the other hand, around nine percent of men are affected by depression. Teenagers and college students are also known to suffer from depression. School lifestyle and non-recommendable grades make students have depression. In teenagers, physical changes and peer pressure contribute to depression. A person suffering from depression can have the following signs and symptoms.

Signs and symptoms of a person with depression

Below are some of the signs and symptoms of Depression. They include:

  •   Mood swings in women and teenage girls
  •   Irritability
  •   Anxiety
  •   Excessive consumption of alcohol in men
  •   Overworking
  •   Displaying abusive and uncontrolled behaviors in a relationship
  •   Decrease in appetite in college students and teenagers

Below are the causes of depression.

The most known causes of Depression in both genders

According to research, there is no specific cause of depression. The following factors are suggested to be the main cause of depression.

  • Bipolar disorder
  • Environmental factors
  • Psychological and physiological factors
  • Genetic factors

These factors cause depression when triggered by other conditions. Additional factors include losing something or a person you love, war, and hunger also cause depression. Below are steps on how depression is treated

Treatment and management of depression

Depression can be treated and managed using three steps. These steps are support, psychotherapy, and drug treatment. Support is the ability to give solutions to possible causes of depression. Support also involves providing advice and measures on how to cope with stress. Medication is also a way of fighting depression. Antidepressants are prescribed to reduce depression and create a peaceful mind. These drugs act as neurotransmitters that are capable of relaxing your mind. You should complete the prescribed dose, even when the symptoms tend to disappear. A patient should only take antidepressants with permission from a physician to avoid side effects like constipation, low blood sugar, and weight loss.

People take depression lightly, without knowing the dangers it can cause. A non-severe depression, if not managed earlier, leads to severe depression. Every person has different environmental factors meaning that you suffer from depression differently from another person.  Loss of a job, loss of loved ones, and disasters can make you suffer depression. Symptoms like loss of appetite, loss of weight, and mood swings signify the effects of depression. This condition can be managed through medication and support.
