You Don't Have to Feel This Way Forever

Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming. You may feel persistently sad, empty, or hopeless — or notice that things you once enjoyed no longer bring pleasure. You might struggle with sleep, energy, concentration, or a sense of worthlessness that is hard to shake.
