10: DEPRESSION - The Ugly Beast Within, Live Episode
Symptoms of depression can include changes in mood, such as feeling sad or hopeless, a loss of interest or pleasure in activities, changes in appetite or sleep patterns, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and thoughts of self-harm or suicide. However, it's important to note that not everyone with depression will experience all of these symptoms, and some may experience different symptoms altogether.
It's important to recognize that depression is not a sign of weakness or a personal failure, but rather a treatable medical condition. Treatment options for depression include therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes, such as exercise and changes in diet. Support from friends and family is also crucial in the recovery process. Society's understanding of depression is slowly changing, but there is still a significant amount of stigma surrounding the condition. It's important to educate ourselves and others about depression to help reduce the stigma and increase understanding of this serious condition.
