You may feel down once in a month or in a week but the frequent feeling can lead to serious brain and mental health issues, like depression. It is a condition that needs more attention. People often ignore this type of feeling and do not go for therapy until it gets worse or leads to serious or dangerous thoughts that cross the mind.

A therapist or medicine can help to treat this type of condition. Not every person experiences the same type of depression as it has different types that can affect you and your loved ones.

A psychiatrist in Karachi says that no matter what type of depression it is, when you experience or have such feelings, get medical help or talk to your therapist about how you feel and what are the triggers.
