İşaretler nelerdir?
- Günün büyük bir bölümünde kendinizi kötü veya sinirli hissediyorsunuz, iki hafta veya daha uzun süre her gün. Kendinizi uzun süre geçmiş veya gelecekteki olaylar hakkında endişelenirken veya sadece üzgün, kırgın veya ağlamaklı hissederken bulmuş olabilirsiniz. Bazen kademeli bir değişikliği fark etmek zordur. Başkaları sizin her zamanki halinize benzemediğinizi fark etti mi?
- Eskiden zevk aldığınız etkinliklere olan ilginizi kaybettiniz.

Depresyon tedavi edilebilir mi?
Depresyon, birçok akıl sağlığı durumu gibi, ‘üçte bir kuralı’ izler: Hastaların üçte biri tamamen iyileşir, üçte biri tedaviye kısmen yanıt verir ve üçte biri tedaviden hiç fayda görmez. Yaşınız, semptomlarınızın süresi, ailede depresyon öyküsü olması ve birlikte ortaya çıkan zihinsel veya fiziksel sağlık sorunlarının tümü prognozunuzu etkileyebilir. Bazı araştırmacılar, daha önce geçirdiğiniz epizodların sayısıyla birlikte depresyonda nüksetme olasılığının arttığı bir ‘yara izi’ etkisi olduğuna dair kanıtlar olduğuna inanıyor. Şiddetli depresyonla ilişkili intihar riski de artar.
How Music Affects Our Subconscious
Everyone feels low from time to time, so it’s not always easy to know when it is part-and-parcel of daily life, and when it’s time to seek help. In most cases, it is short-term and self-correcting, but for a significant minority this is not the case. For those individuals, it is important to seek treatment just as you would any other health condition. Here we discuss six warning signs which, together, might indicate that it’s time to seek professional help.
What are the signs?
- You’ve been feeling low or irritable for most of the day, every day for two weeks or more. You might have found yourself worrying about past or future events for long periods of time, or simply feeling sad, cross or tearful. Sometimes it’s hard to recognize a gradual change – have others noticed that you don’t seem your usual self?
- You’ve lost interest in activities that you used to enjoy. Perhaps you have been seeing less of your friends or family recently, have stopped going to the gym, or cooking balanced meals. This is really about recognizing changes in what’s normal for you – no one is saying you have to exercise five times a week or eat your greens, but changes in your routine can offer concrete indications that your mood is changing.
- You are struggling to concentrate. You might notice that you struggle to focus when reading or watching television, for example, or to follow the thread of a spoken conversation. This could be affecting your performance at work, or limiting your ability to perform routine tasks such as food shopping. Again, we are looking for a change in what’s normal for you, so if concentration has always been something you find tricky there is little cause for concern.
Bear in mind that no one of these signs is in itself indicative of depression, and there are other, perfectly good reasons for each of these symptoms occurring. It’s also important to know that there are several types of depression and each can present in different ways – read more about types of depression. A GP is always a good first port of call, as they can signpost you towards more specialist services if necessary. Otherwise, if you are sure you’d like to see a mental health professional, consider making an appointment to see a psychiatrist who will be able to give you a diagnosis and advise you on which treatment might work best for you

Can depression be cured?
Depression, like many mental health conditions, follows ‘the rule of thirds’: One third of sufferers will make a full recovery, one third will partially respond to treatment, and one third will not benefit from treatment at all. Your age, the duration of your symptoms, having a family history of depression, and co-occurring mental or physical health difficulties might all affect your prognosis. Some researchers believe that there is evidence for a ‘scarring’ effect, where the likelihood of suffering from a relapse in depression increases with the number of episodes you have already had. There is also an increased risk of suicide associated with severe depression.
