Warnings of Relapse in Depression
A depression treatment center should have known the most cases of
depression before treatments. Yes, Depression is a condition that can
recur. While it is important for treatment centers to equip the patients
with the techniques & knowledge on how to combat a possible
relapse, it may be inadvertent or occurs when an individual becomes
helpless or a trauma strikes him/her. This is where catching the
symptoms early before they become a full-blown case of Depression
becomes important and necessary.
Depression treatment centers often conduct post therapy sessions,
though the condition has been successfully treated. This is done
primarily to eliminate chances of Relapse. Individuals who have come
out of chronic depression symptoms but do not go through these post
therapy sessions face big chances of a potential relapse.
Here are some warning symptoms of depression relapse that you should watch
out for.
Difficulty in making Conversations
If leaving the house and making a conversation seems challenging, you
should be wary of how socially active you are or are not. Maintaining a
strong and supportive social network is important for individuals who
have battled depression so that they can steer clear of another
potential relapse.
Sleep well
Sleeping at the same time everyday will put you in the habit of having
quality sleep. Engaging in other activities during usual sleep hours can
put you at the risk of developing insomnia. Being sleep deprived is one
of the major contributing factors to relapse of depression. Sleeping
well is key and that practice will be established when you get into a
routine sleep pattern. On the other hand, sleeping excessively can also
be equally disastrous.
Irritability
When even the smallest of things make you snap, you should begin to
make conscious efforts to keep track. If you have been easy going but
suddenly experience emotional spurts and violent outbursts, you could
be preparing yourself for another bout of depression.
Hopelessness
Feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness are major reasons that
contribute to self-loathing and thereby causing depression in
individuals.
The role of any depression treatment center is to turn off these
feelings when they emerge. This is the main reason why post session
therapies are conducted by these centers to ensure that relapses do
not occur and even if there are chances; to equip the individual to
handle such situations better.
