Depression is one of the most common yet serious mental health conditions, affecting how a person thinks, feels, and functions daily. It goes beyond temporary sadness or “feeling down” — it can impact sleep, appetite, energy levels, motivation, and physical health. Common symptoms include persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, feelings of worthlessness or guilt, difficulty concentrating, and thoughts of self-harm or suicide.

At Afe Behavioral, we understand that depression looks different for everyone. Whether it’s major depressive disorder, postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, or dysthymia (chronic low mood), our approach combines compassionate care, clinical expertise, and evidence-based treatments such as psychotherapy, medication management, and holistic support to help you regain joy and meaning in your life.
