Depression Treatment at Capstone Mental Health: Regain Control of Your Life

Are You Struggling With Symptoms of Depression?

  • Do you wake up feeling sad or hopeless?

  • Are you crying unexpectedly, even when you don’t want to?

  • Do you struggle to fall asleep, stay asleep, or find yourself sleeping too much?

  • Have you lost motivation for activities you once enjoyed?

If these symptoms resonate with you, you may be experiencing clinical depression. Even routine tasks like showering, getting dressed, or connecting with loved ones can feel overwhelming. You’re not alone—depression affects millions of people and can significantly impact your quality of life.

You Are Not Alone

According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), 17.3 million adults in the U.S. experience at least one major depressive episode annually. Over 11 million people face such severe symptoms that it disrupts their ability to work, maintain relationships, or care for themselves.

Depression and Its Impact on Physical Health

Untreated depression doesn’t just affect your mood—it can also harm your physical health. Common effects include:

  • Weight gain or weight loss

  • Insomnia or excessive sleep

  • Headaches and chronic pain

  • Digestive issues

  • Increased risk of heart disease or stroke

Prolonged depression can also lead to fatigue, joint stiffness, and a weakened immune system. Professional treatment can alleviate both emotional and physical symptoms, helping you feel like yourself again.

Understanding Depression vs. Dysphoria

  • Dysphoria: A temporary state of feeling down or dissatisfied, often linked to specific events. While unpleasant, dysphoria doesn’t typically impair daily functioning.

  • Depression: A persistent condition lasting two weeks or more, marked by feelings of worthlessness, guilt, brain fog, and even thoughts of suicide or self-harm.

Clinical depression is a serious condition that rarely resolves on its own. Seeking professional help can make a profound difference in your life.
