Anxiety, depression and mood instability can result from a response to a specific trigger or life events, or to a culmination of life stressors, and for some individuals anxiety, depression and mood instability can have a genetic component. The symptoms can vary from one individual to another, and they can wax and wane in severity. Depression and anxiety can affect each of us physically, emotionally and cognitively, and can potentially lead to impairments in one's ability to attend to self care and perform daily tasks.
Often our initial attempts at trying to cope and comfort ourselves when we feel distressed can inadvertently lead to a worsening of the symptoms. We can work together to address the stressors and identify effective coping strategies to help manage and reduce the symptoms, so that you can resume meaningful day to day activity.
