What Is Depression and What Does It Feel Like?

Depression is a mental health condition that affects how a person thinks, feels, and functions in daily life. It goes beyond temporary sadness, creating a persistent sense of emptiness, hopelessness, or disinterest in activities once enjoyed. Depression can impact:

• Sleep
• Appetite
• Energy levels
• Concentration, making even simple tasks feel overwhelming

For many, depression feels like carrying an invisible weight, draining motivation and emotional resilience. It can bring feelings of worthlessness, excessive guilt, or a sense of isolation, even when surrounded by others. Some experience physical symptoms, such as fatigue, headaches, or body aches.

Depression is not a sign of weakness but a real and treatable condition. Seeking support from a therapist or counselor can help individuals navigate their emotions, develop coping strategies, and regain a sense of hope. With proper care, those struggling with depression can find relief and move toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
