Best Doctor for Depression

Depression is a disorder of the mind. While plenty of disorders/ diseases are inborn, in most cases depression is acquired in life. Sadness is again a common phenomenon, where there is happiness there is sadness. So feelings of guilt, grief, hopelessness, loneliness, disinterest, and exhaustion are part of our daily life. These feelings are also major symptoms of depression.

 Perhaps that is why people have started using the term as an adjective instead of the disorder. 

While depression can be acquired at any stage of life, it is seen commonly in years of young adulthood or older adulthood, where life changes are tremendous. The cause of depression is plenty, but those with lower self-esteem, a toxic environment, or traumatic experiences are at high risk.

The Treatment of Depression is;

• Medications: Pharmacotherapy is an essential mode of treatment. Depression affects our bodies in many ways, most of which require the help of medication to manage the symptoms. The severity of symptoms and dysfunctions will decide the dosage of medications.
• Psychotherapy: while our bodies may be affected by chemicals, our thoughts also need a helping hand to change the way we treat our minds. Therapy is an essential form of treatment for depression, to aid the individual make active changes to their life.
