You Can't Manage What You Don't Track

What is Depression?

It’s hard to not feel sad or down when things go awry or life sends challenges your way. But that’s a normal part of life. However, when the “blues” persist and won’t go away, you may have clinical depression. Depression affects your whole body, from the way you feel about yourself and think about things, to changes in your daily habits. It can interfere with your ability to work, study, eat, sleep and enjoy life. You may feel like you’re “living in a black hole” or you feel empty inside and lifeless, unable to experience pleasure. You may even have difficulty getting out of bed. But, you don’t have to feel like this. With appropriate treatment and journaling of your symptoms, you can have a better understanding of depression and improve your health outcomes. Learn more about depression as a member of Symptom Journal.

Causes of Depression

The causes of clinical depression are unclear. Some of the theories suggest biological and genetic factors, psychological factors, environmental influences, and childhood or developmental events. More causes and risk factors associated with depression are discussed in the Symptom Journal member’s section.

Symptoms of Depression

Symptoms are our first clues in understanding our depression and how it affects our body. Depression symptoms can vary greatly from person to person, and may wax and wane in severity over time. Symptoms may include: inability to concentrate, feelings of guilt, hopelessness, loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities that were once enjoyed, and fatigue. An extensive list of symptoms is presented in your Symptom Checklist. Through your Daily Questions you can monitor how your symptoms, treatment and lifestyle are affecting your health.

Diagnosis, Treatment and Self-Care with Depression

Understand the process your doctor may use when diagnosing depression. In the Members area, there is a full description of the diagnosis process and possible tests that your doctor may order. We discuss the conventional treatment options along with alternative and complimentary treatments that other individuals with depression have found helpful. Our depression self-care section for members explains how simple lifestyle choices can help improve your outcomes and quality of life.

As a member of the Symptom Journal, you will be able to see how your treatment, lifestyle choices, and nutrition correlate with how your symptoms increase or decrease through our Reports area, allowing you to make timely changes with your health team that saves you money, time, pain, and energy. The information you receive from your reports will help you make changes that help you live your best life with depression.

Exercise, Nutrition & Support for Depression

In the Exercise and Nutrition section for members, we cover some of the most popular diets and exercise tips that people have used to positively affect their quality of life and outcomes with depression. We also provide an Inspiration Toolkit for our members, giving you tools, support, and motivational techniques for staying inspired with your health journey.
