Get the Treatment You Need
Many of us walk around with a shadow hanging over our heads, wondering if we have anxiety or depression. We might even experience so many symptoms and stressors that we are not able to identify our feelings. We know someone who battles with depression or anxiety, and we know what it’s like to have those feelings. But what are some signs or indications that therapy could be beneficial?
Signs are often subtle and can even include physical symptoms because the mind and body are connected. You become withdrawn and isolated from friends and family, you get up early on weekends because you have too much time to think, you have trouble concentrating, and your energy level is low.
Talk Therapy
We can all benefit from therapy when feelings and experiences become overwhelming. It can be very easy to slip into some dark place and there’s a lot of stigma around mental health, so it’s important to understand you can heal. Anxiety, depression, past traumas and life stressors all deserve equal care and attention.
Take care of your body and your mind. Connect with others to benefit your mental health. Talking to someone about what is on your mind is very therapeutic and can be a great coping skill when times get tough.
