Depression
Feeling stuck, flat, or disconnected from what once mattered? Depression can affect many aspects of your life, but support is available.
Key information you should know
- Depression affects people of all ages and varies in severity.
- Symptoms often include persistent sadness, loss of interest, fatigue, trouble concentrating, changes in sleep or appetite, and feelings of hopelessness or guilt.
- Evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and lifestyle strategies can help.
Depression isn’t just about feeling sad. It affects how you think, feel, and care for yourself. You may feel stuck or distant from things that once brought joy, with a low or numb mood that lasts most days for at least two weeks. It is common to find everyday tasks harder, such as getting out of bed, eating well, or finding motivation. Over time, this can affect your relationships, work, and sense of identity.
Almost 1 in 6 Australians will experience depression at some point. Although it can feel isolating, it is treatable.
