You’re Not Alone in Depression and Grief

grief-depression-therapy

"It's hard to describe the symptoms I guess. I wake up with a feeling of dread. Sunday nights are especially the worst knowing I have a new work week ahead of me. I finally manage to get out of bed and get ready for the day. People ask me how I'm doing and I say, "I'm fine." What else am I supposed to say?"

We’re Here to Help You Connect With a Depression Therapist

While many of us don't experience full-on depressive episodes that keep us from functioning, all of us experience varying degrees of depressive feelings over the course of our lifetime. First, take a moment to give yourself a bit of grace knowing this isn’t something wrong with you, and acknowledging a need for support is a true gift you can give yourself when you’re not sure where to go next. 

Depression can be heightened when you’ve experienced any form of grief, or may introduce itself to your life if you’re walking through grief for the first time. That's why we say we work with existential depression. Who doesn't go through seasons of major questioning? Whether it's wondering how to feel more purposeful through work, battling out questions of intimacy post-break-up, coping with loss, or otherwise experiencing the "f*ck this, I just want to stay in bed" vibe, we hear you. 

You Have Understanding and Guidance, Here

Sometimes depression is situational. Maybe you're moving through an unclear time of transition. Or maybe you're feeling sensitive to the clock and age as you question your place and purpose in the world. Sometimes our depression has a lot to do with our story and the things we've been through such as loss. We often don't realize the impact our narrative has on our emotions until we take the time to share that narrative with someone who will help us fully understand it. 

It's also hard because oftentimes we "know" we should do certain things to help us stimulate a better mood, but depression robs us of our energy and motivation. It's a real catch-22 that can leave us feeling helpless and hopeless, but that’s where therapists with huge hearts and years of experience holding space for this work come in to guide you.
