We all feel sad from time to time—but when sadness lingers for weeks, drains your energy, and affects your daily life, it may be more than just a low mood. It may be clinical depression.
Depression is one of the most common, yet most misunderstood mental health conditions. It doesn’t mean weakness or failure—it means your mind and body need care.
At Dr. Mitali Soni Loya’s Psychiatry & De-addiction Clinic in Bhopal, we offer evidence-based depression treatment in a safe, non-judgmental space. Whether you're struggling with hopelessness, fatigue, or emotional pain—we're here to help you heal.
Signs You May Be Experiencing Depression
- Persistent sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness
- Loss of interest in activities once enjoyed
- Fatigue, low energy, or sleep changes
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
- Appetite changes or weight fluctuations
- Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or self-blame
- Irritability or withdrawal from loved ones
- Physical symptoms like headaches or body pain
- Thoughts of death or suicide
If you notice these symptoms lasting more than two weeks, it’s time to seek help. Depression is treatable—with the right support, recovery is possible.
Common Causes of Depression
Depression can affect anyone—regardless of age, gender, or background. It may be triggered by:
- Biological Factors: Imbalance in brain chemicals like serotonin and dopamine
- Genetics: Family history of depression or mental illness
- Life Events: Trauma, loss, financial stress, or major transitions
- Medical Conditions: Thyroid issues, chronic pain, or neurological disorders
- Substance Use: Alcohol, drugs, or withdrawal effects
At our mental health clinic in Bhopal, we carefully evaluate these factors to create a personalized treatment plan.
Treatment Process for Depression
Step 1: Initial Psychiatric Consultation
We listen to your story without judgment. Understanding your emotional state, medical history, and life circumstances helps us form a clear diagnosis.
Result: Emotional relief and clear treatment direction
Step 2: Therapy (CBT, Interpersonal Therapy)
Talk therapy helps address negative thought patterns, self-worth issues, and emotional wounds. We use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and supportive counseling to empower healing.
Result: Greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and coping skills
Step 3: Medication (if necessary)
If depression is moderate to severe, antidepressant medication may be prescribed. Dr. Mitali ensures low dose, carefully monitored treatment.
Result: Stabilized mood, restored energy, and mental clarity
Step 4: Lifestyle & Family Support
We guide individuals and families on how to create a supportive environment, manage daily routines, and avoid emotional triggers.
Result: Reduced relapse risk, improved relationships, and long-term wellness
