Sometimes, life feels heavy — like you’re always tired, sad without a reason, losing interest in things you once enjoyed. You may feel alone, unmotivated, or just “off” for days or weeks. Many people go through this and don’t even realize it could be the early signs of depression.

Depression is more than just feeling sad. It can make everyday things feel hard, like getting out of bed, working, or even talking to people. It’s not something to hide or be ashamed of. Talking to a psychiatrist doesn’t mean something is wrong with you — it means you care about your mental health. Just like you visit a doctor for your body, your mind also deserves care.
