Depression is a relentless, nagging, and unwelcome feeling of dread, hopelessness, and mental fatigue. It is more than just a ‘bad day’. Depression can come in waves or it can linger throughout your life. Sometimes there is a catalyst or trigger for this feeling, such as a job loss, the death of a loved one, or a divorce, but sometimes this low mood sets in without warning or reason. Depression and grief go hand and hand, and you don’t have to weather this storm alone.
