We all feel sad or have changes in our mood at times. Depression is a mental health condition that can cause persistent changes to your mood. This may include sadness, anxiousness, hopelessness, fear or guilt. The catalyst of depression isn’t always easy to determine, but it can be the result of trauma, genetics, anxiety or pent up thoughts or emotions that haven’t been expressed or resolved. Depression is very common, 1 in 5 Australians experience this condition at least once in their life. With the right help, depression can be treated with many therapeutic methods with significant positive benefits for overall well being and combatting mood changes
