What is depression and how to identify it?

Having an occasional low mood does not necessarily imply suffering from a depressive disorder. However, when this emotional distress is prolonged, intensifies, or interferes with your daily life, it is important to see a psychologist specialised in depression in Fuengirola.

Depression is a mood disturbance that can manifest itself in different ways. Often, people experience:

  • Disinterest in activities they once enjoyed

  • Feeling of emptiness or hopelessness

  • Constant fatigue

  • Changes in appetite or sleep

  • Negative or catastrophic thoughts

Common causes of depression

In many cases, the origin and maintenance of depressive disorder are not rooted in the same place. It is common that a traumatic event, a bereavement or loss, a major life change or a stressful or anxious situation has initiated the problem, but what sustains it over time is usually more related to changes in behaviour and thought patterns.

The most common causes of depression include:

  • Stressful life events (bereavement, break-up, illness)

  • Associated anxiety disorders

  • Low self-esteem

  • Social isolation

  • Lack of meaning or motivation for life

  • Unhealthy habits or use of drugs and intoxicants.
