Depression is often misunderstood as “just being sad,” but the truth is much more complex. While sadness can be part of it, depression often shows up as:
>Feeling drained or exhausted no matter how much you rest
>Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
>Changes in appetite or sleep
>Irritability or lack of motivation
>Loss of interest in things that once brought joy
💡 Depression is not a weakness, and it’s not something people can simply “snap out of.” It’s a real mental health condition that deserves understanding and support.
At Trauma Specialists, we meet clients with compassion and evidence-based care—including EMDR, talk therapy, and holistic approaches—because healing looks different for everyone.
💙 Let’s break the stigma and talk openly about what depression really is.
