What Causes Depression?

So what causes depression? There are multiple factors that contribute to a depressed state. For some, biological and social changes in the brain's chemistry directly affect mood as well as thought processes.
Chronic physical illnesses such heart disease or cancer may also cause feelings of sadness due to their impact on quality of life.
Many people experience mental distress when they feel out of balance with aspects important for emotional health, like relationships and work satisfaction.
Depression is a common mood disorder that can affect anyone. It’s often triggered by life stressors such as the death of family members or losing a job, but there are other more subtle factors too. Because it manifests differently in different people and its causes aren't always obvious, proper diagnosis requires careful evaluation from mental health professionals like those at BOLD Health who have been trained to make these assessments and treat accordingly!
Our Depression Therapy Treatment In San Diego
We have successfully treated many clients who are dealing with depression and we always use psychotherapy to do so. This is the most helpful way of treating this mental illness for our providers, as they study it every day in their work.
In San Diego, depression therapy has different approaches that focus on identifying psychological causes. We offer sessions with a therapist who will work to uncover factors contributing to your condition and help you find ways of coping effectively with them.
- Therapy allows people to see that they have choices and slowly reincorporates enjoyable activities back into their life.
- Our depression therapists help patients understand which problems in their lives contribute to feeling depressed and how they can work towards solving or improving these. They also explore with them thoughts of the future, helping individuals set realistic goals that enable better mental health going forward. Additionally, our counselors encourage clients by finding out what has worked for similar feelings in the past so as to implement a more positive outlook on life now.
- Individuals suffering from depression may often overgeneralize, thinking about things in terms of "always" or "never." Depressed individuals may also take events personally. If you are dealing with negative feelings, it is important to think more positively and reflect on these issues before they become out-of-control.
- By understanding the learned thought and behavior patterns that contribute to depression, we can help depressed individuals improve their quality of life. For example, by working with a therapist or in group therapy sessions, patients learn more positive ways of interacting with others which helps them cope better emotionally and socially.
At BOLD Health, our San Diego depression therapy sets itself apart by allowing clinicians to create rapport with patients.
