Depression
Kyle Davies
Psychologist, BSc MPhil CPsychol AFBPsS
In modern society, the word depression is used to describe experiences ranging from low mood and sadness to a complete inability to function. Depression can manifest as extreme fatigue, cognitive dysfunction and suicidal thoughts.
Statistics tell us that one in six to a quarter of us will suffer from mild to severe depression at some point in our lives. Mild to severe depression can last from a few days to many years. Often there are no clear-cut manifestations of the depression that outsiders can observe, and this compounds the problem because people don’t understand what you are experiencing.
No two people’s experience of depression is exactly the same, and it can be very difficult to understand why the symptoms are even present much less what to do about it. Having experienced depression firsthand, I know what the experience is like and how debilitating it can be. I have now successfully treated sufferers of depression for over 20 years and have drawn heavily on my personal experience and the lessons it taught me.
Depression symptoms can manifest themselves in many different ways and can also increase gradually over time making them harder to detect in the early stages. The symptoms can be wide-ranging and the symptoms can appear to be constant and relentless. Your symptom experiences may well include:
low mood
hopelessness
lack of motivation
confusion and a sense of being lost or stuck
loss of appetite, weight loss, or weight gain
cognitive dysfunction – ‘brain fog’, inability to concentrate and memory loss
sleep disturbance
loss of pleasure and interest in life
agitation
fatigue and lack of energy
suicidal thoughts
weakness
aches and pains
Loss of libido
I’d like to be very clear, we often think that when we experience symptoms there is something wrong with our brain. While this can be the case, a more useful way of looking at symptoms for the condition of depression, is that your body is seeking to get your attention, to let you know that something is not quite right. You are NOT broken, your body is working perfectly normally, it is simply alerting you to the fact that you’ve become disconnected from YOU and something needs to change. Opening up to a new understanding and making that change is well within your own capability.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
Working in a trauma informed way means actively resisting re-traumatisation whilst understanding the root cause of my client's depression. We assess your strengths and coping mechanisms, building a therapeutic relationship. I may use some CBT tools in order to identify and challenge any negative thought patterns and beliefs which may be stemming from past trauma - and replacing them with healthier, more balanced thoughts. Working with a body-oriented approach which focuses on releasing trauma stored in the body may be helpful as well as learning how to regulate your nervous system. Mindfulness and meditation techniques are often useful with this. Ultimately ensuring continuity of care by providing you with resources and referrals for additional support if this will be helpful and is required.

Depression has different ways of being approached. Depression and Alexithymia can be what is found suppressed with or without anxiety and other co-occurring expressions. We can offer parts work, functional support, distance TCM integration, application of an intersectional model to address ongoing depression from abusive/oppressive impacts or stored impacts...Sometimes the co-occuring condition needs care and compassionate meeting, e.g. in cases of chronic health challenges. Sometimes a more creative approach brings folks back on line from depression. Since our focus is CPTSD care, we often work with depression from a parts perspective for the last 14 years.
