Feeling sad or down occasionally is a normal part of life, but when these feelings persist and interfere with daily activities, it can indicate a more serious issue, such as depression or another type of mood disorder. At Ramsay Mental Health, we understand the complexities of these conditions and are here to support you on your path to recovery.
Mood disorders encompass a range of conditions that affect your emotional state, including depression, bipolar disorder, and dysthymia. These conditions can cause significant emotional distress, and affect your ability to function in everyday life.
