Women's Depression
Counseling Group

 

 

 

Depression is Real

 

If you are struggling with depression, anxiety or some other mental distress, we hope that the information on the site will help you cope. Each year over 17 million American adults experience a period of clinical depression.

 

Depression can interfere with normal functioning, and frequently causes problems with work, social and family adjustment. It causes pain and suffering not only to those who have a disorder, but also to those who care about them. Serious depression can destroy family life as well as the life of the depressed person.

 

Women are more likely to become depressed than men. What ever the reason, women who suffer from depression can feel very isolated.  Our goal is to help you realize you are not alone while participating in the lives of other women struggling with similar experiences.

 

If you identify with several of the following signs and symptoms, and they just won’t go away, you may be suffering from clinical depression.

• you can’t sleep enough or you sleep too much  
• you can’t concentrate or find that previously easy tasks are now difficult
• you feel worthless and hopeless
• you can’t control your negative thoughts, no matter how much you try
• you have lost your appetite or you can’t stop eating
• you are constantly irritated or become enraged even at small things – and this is new for you  
• you have thoughts that life is not worth living, or have a plan for how you would end it (Seek help immediately if this is the case)

 

If you have depression or another mental health condition, joining a support group is often a valuable addition to professional treatment. Support groups also can be a source of hope for recovery and a more enjoyable future.

 

Group Objective

 

The first step in fighting depression is to understand what it is, how it affects you, and what causes it.  With assistance from other women, this group will help you answer these important questions.  The opportunity to share with other women will help you make positive changes in your life and access your inner strength.

 

If even the thought of tackling your depression seems overwhelming, don’t panic. Feeling helpless and hopeless is a symptom of depression not the reality of your situation. It does not mean that you’re weak or you can’t change! The key to depression recovery is to start small and ask for help. Having a strong support system in place will speed your recovery. Isolation fuels depression, so reach out to others, even when you feel like being alone. Allow the women in this group to provide you with the support you need.

 

Our group is confidential, welcoming and informative. Please join us!
