Depression can often be described as an overwhelming feeling that things are completely hopeless and sad. Sometimes the experience is brief usually triggered by a particular event or experience that has happened in our life.  However sometimes the sensation can be prolonged and long lasting leaving one feeling disinterested, tired, hopeless and unable to concentrate. Anxiety and feeling depressed can often be experienced together and can be very disabling, disruptive, and often heightened by substance abuse.

Events such as separation, divorce, job loss, loss of significant other or troubled family relations can all contribute to feeling low and overwhelmed. Bondi Counselling Services can help identify and work through such feelings.
