What is depression?

Depression is a mental health condition that affects your thoughts, feelings, and body. It can make it difficult to find joy in everyday life and can impact your work, relationships, and quality of life.

Depression can range from mild to severe and can occur at any stage of life. Some people experience isolated episodes, while others have recurring episodes. Regardless of the form, it is important to know that depression is treatable—and that many people get significantly better with the right help.

Symptoms of depression

The symptoms of depression can vary from person to person, but typically people experience a combination of both mental and physical symptoms.

The most common symptoms are:

  • Persistent sadness or low mood
  • Loss of interest and enjoyment in activities
  • Lack of energy and severe fatigue
  • Sleep problems (too little or too much sleep)
  • Changes in appetite and weight
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or low self-esteem
  • Social withdrawal
  • Thoughts about death or suicide

Course of treatment

A course of treatment begins with a thorough assessment and is tailored to your individual needs. The course is continuously adjusted along the way to ensure you get the best possible results.

A typical course of treatment consists of:

  1. Initial interview
  2. Thorough investigation
  3. Individualized treatment plan
  4. Counseling sessions and/or medical treatment
  5. Ongoing monitoring and adjustment
  6. Conclusion and Prevention

Most treatment courses last between 8 and 20 weeks, depending on the severity of the symptoms and the type of treatment. In cases of more complex or recurrent depression, the course of treatment may be longer.

Treatment of depression

Medical treatment

For moderate to severe depression, medication can be an effective part of treatment. The choice depends on your symptoms, previous experiences, and any side effects.
The effects of antidepressant medication are typically seen after 2–6 weeks, and you will be monitored regularly so that your treatment can be adjusted to suit your needs.

Psychoeducation

Psychoeducation provides you with information about depression and practical tools for managing symptoms in your daily life. It can also be a valuable source of support for family members.

Combination therapy

For many people, a combination of medication and talk therapy yields the best results—especially in cases of severe depression.
