Depression
And how we treat it
What is depression?
Depression is a sense of sadness and hopelessness that occurs seemingly regardless of circumstance.
It’s normal to feel sad and down from time to time, particularly after related situations such as a relationship breakdown or bereavement – but depression is a sense of sadness and hopelessness that occurs seemingly regardless of circumstance.
Symptoms of depression include:
- Low mood, lasting for several weeks
- Tearfulness
- Loss of interest in social interactions, hobbies or interests
- Changes in sleep patterns – difficulty sleeping or needing to sleep too much
- Changes in appetite – overeating or loss of appetite
- Irritability
- Loss of libido
- Difficulty making decisions
- Feeling unable to cope
- Sense of hopelessness and helplessness
- Suicidal thoughts and feelings
Bipolar is characterised by periods of low mood and depression, followed by times of mania and manic behaviour, highs and overactivity.
If you think you, or somebody you care about is suffering from depression, bipolar or other kinds of mood issues, support and help is available. Depression is a condition that can be treated effectively with the right range of therapeutic input. Our private depression treatment offers personalised approach in a luxurious accommodation to best fit your needs.
Holistic and natural approach for treating depression
Research shows there are usually a number of aspects involved in why somebody might be feeling depressed or have other debilitating depressive related conditions like seasonal effective issues, post-natal depression, major depressive or bipolar issues.
At RósGlas recovery, we take a completely holistic and comprehensive view to any condition we treat.
This includes assessing and understanding how underlying biological and biochemical imbalances or trauma may be playing a part in your mood and health. We also consider psychological, social and family factors, environmental and lifestyle influences and spiritual aspects (if relevant to the individual).
We aim to treat depression, bipolar, mood issues and other psychiatric conditions in a natural, organic way, without the use of medications where possible. We also work in partnership with referring psychiatrists to ensure a smooth and supportive treatment approach.
The dedicated team at RósGlas assess and treat psychological and emotional issues and provide evidence-based therapy for depression that suit your individual needs and goals. This includes couples or family therapy – we can also provide family, friends and loved ones with information or support as requested.
Part of our exclusive treatment for depression includes supporting a daily structure, testing and biochemical restoration for depression, supporting an optimal nutritional plan, lifestyle changes, personal training, nature excursions, a range of leisure and social activities, spiritual practices, yoga, meditation, as well as a range of concierge therapy services for depression like specialist counselling, complimentary therapies and more.
