At Motion Wellness in Lyneham, we provide compassionate and professional counselling for depression in Canberra, helping you find practical ways to manage symptoms and move towards recovery.
Understanding Depression
Depression is more than occasional sadness. It can feel overwhelming, persistent, and isolating. Common signs include:
-
Ongoing feelings of sadness or emptiness
-
Loss of interest in activities once enjoyed
-
Fatigue, low energy, or difficulty concentrating
-
Changes in appetite or sleep patterns
-
Feelings of guilt, hopelessness, or worthlessness
-
Withdrawing from friends and family
Recognising these symptoms is an important step in seeking help with depression and beginning the journey toward healing.
