If you have depression, you may experience:
A healthcare professional will evaluate your depressive symptoms over a 2-week period and review your family’s health history. Blood tests may also be ordered to rule out underlying conditions such as vitamin deficiencies. According to the DSM-5, a diagnosis of depression requires at least five of the main symptoms to be present for over two weeks.
A mental health professional, such as a psychologist, psychiatrist, or clinical social worker, can diagnose depression. You can also discuss your concerns with a general healthcare professional for an initial diagnosis, who can then refer you to a mental health specialist for further evaluation and treatment.
If you’re wondering, “Do I have depression?” a clinical depression test can help clarify the scope and impact of your symptoms. This test includes a scale to rate various depression symptoms. Your total score, combined with a clinical interview, will determine your diagnosis.
When depression symptoms persist for two weeks or longer, seek help from a mental health professional. Treatment options include therapy, medication, or a combination of both. At Talkspace, we make accessing high-quality care easy by connecting you with licensed and experienced providers anywhere, anytime. Find an online therapist or prescriber to begin your journey in treating clinical depression.
While depression can’t always be prevented, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can lower your risk. Prioritize sleep, manage stress, engage in self-care, and seek early help if symptoms emerge.
Not at all. Depression is a medical condition, not a character flaw. It’s okay to ask for help recovery is possible with the right support.
Recovery time varies depending on the severity and type of depression, individual response to treatment, and adherence to a care plan. Many people begin feeling better in just a few weeks.
Not always. Mild to moderate depression may respond well to therapy and lifestyle changes. However, moderate to severe cases often benefit from a combination of medication and therapy.
Just like adults, children can suffer from depression that significantly impairs their social, academic and/or other domains of functioning. For more information on childhood depression
There are effective treatments for depression which have been established through research; many treatments for depression have been around for years. Many people ignore signs of depression despite experiencing significant suffering. This may be due to stigma, lack of awareness, and/or barriers to accessing care. Untreated depression confers several risks. Discussing your concerns about depression with your doctor can often be the first step in getting professional help.
