Depression is a condition that has a substantial impact on overall health and wellness. It is crucial to seek support to effectively address and manage its symptom's condition to improve you and/or your loved one’s overall health.

 

There are different types of depressive disorders, and while there are many similarities among them, each depressive disorder has its own unique set of symptoms.

A clinical assessment with a licensed mental health provider can provide an assessment and determine the most appropriate clinical impression. Most common depressive related symptoms include the following:
 

  • Persistent sad, anxious or "empty" mood

  • Feelings of hopelessness, pessimism

  • Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, helplessness

  • Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities, including sex

  • Decreased energy, fatigue, feeling "slowed down"

  • Difficulty concentrating, remembering, making decisions

  • Insomnia, early-morning awakening, or oversleeping

  • Low appetite and weight loss or overeating and weight gain

  • Thoughts of death or suicide, suicide attempts

  • Restlessness, irritability

  • Persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment, such as headaches, digestive disorders and pain for which no other cause can be diagnosed.

 

If you are experiencing any of the above symptoms, you can request a free-consultation by calling 201.870.3594 or via email at contact@arisbehavioralhealthllc.com to determine if an initial meeting can be scheduled to determine the most appropriate care for you and/or your loved one.

 

If your current concerns are determined to be an emergency please call 911, go your nearest hospital, and/or call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1.800.273.8255.
