Myths about depression

“Depression isn’t a real illness”
Depression is a complex mental health disorder. It has social, psychological, and biological origins, and it can be treated in a variety of ways.

“You can simply ‘snap out of it"
No one chooses to be depressed. Depression isn’t a sign of self-pity, weakness, or laziness. It’s a medical condition in which your brain chemistry, function, and structure are negatively affected by environmental or biological factors.

“Talking about it only makes things worse”
It may help to talk to a supportive, reliable, and nonjudgmental listener about your feelings. Your loved ones may be willing to provide a sympathetic ear. But in many cases, a certified therapist is better equipped to provide the support you need.

“Antidepressants always cure depression”
They can help address deep-rooted biological issues that may be contributing to your condition. But for many people, antidepressants alone aren’t enough. Combining medications with talk therapy is a common treatment strategy.

If you suspect you’re experiencing any symptoms of depression, please make an appointment with your doctor.
