Depression

 Depression is a complex problem that can affect many different aspects of a person’s life.  It can affect emotions--causing feelings of sadness, despair, guilt, worthlessness, and apathy.  Its effects on the body can cause physical symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue, appetite disturbances, diminished sex drive and anxiety.  The mind of a depressed individual can be affected by the inability to think clearly, notice and remember details, and make good decisions.  The behavior of the depressed person can be affected through the use of alcohol or other drugs, suicidal attempts, and other societal or self-destructive behaviors.  Interpersonal relationships are almost always affected by depression, which in turn can cause aggression, withdrawal, and marital and family distress.  If you think you may be suffering from depression, please do not hesitate in contacting our office as soon as possible.  One of our friendly staff will take some vital information from you and set an appointment with one of our skilled therapists in this area.  Call Change Is Possible Counseling Services at 586-264-3692.
