Types of Depressive Disorders
Identifying symptoms and causes can also help your provider determine which type of depression you’re facing, which may include one of the following:
- Major depressive disorder: MDD is diagnosed when a person experiences multiple depression symptoms persistently for two weeks or more.
- Postpartum depression: Symptoms of this disorder occur during or following pregnancy, for two weeks or more, and may affect your ability to take care of yourself or your baby.
- Bipolar disorder: People with this disorder experience episodes of severe depression that alternate with periods of unusually high energy and activity called mania.
- Premenstrual dysphoric disorder: This is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) caused by hormonal shifts that cause depression a week or two before your period starts.
There are many forms of depression, and any of them have the potential to negatively impact your life. Depression counseling at Thriveworks in Medford, OR can help prevent depression from interfering with your life and give you the tools to regain control of your mental health.
Treating Depression With Therapy
People experience depression in different ways and there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to treatment. However, many people find their symptoms improve through a combination of techniques including talk therapy and prescribed medication.
There are different kinds of therapy used in treating depression, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), interpersonal therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. Your therapist or counselor might draw on one or several of these approaches for your treatment, selecting strategies that will work best for you based on your specific issues and experiences.
During therapy or counseling sessions, your provider will help you work through your thoughts and emotions and may also suggest implementing lifestyle changes such as exercise or meditation. Your therapist can work with you to set realistic goals and practice patience as you see your mood gradually improve.
