Depression is one of the most common yet overlooked mental health conditions, impacting millions of people across the world — including India. It often hides behind smiles, busy routines, or unexplained physical issues, making it hard to spot until it becomes severe.

At Tazen.in, we believe awareness is the first step toward healing. By recognizing the early symptoms of depression, you can take proactive steps to protect your mental well-being and access timely, professional support.

Top 10 Symptoms of Depression

• Persistent Feelings of Sadness or Emptiness
Constant sadness, hopelessness, or emotional numbness that lingers for weeks or months.

• Loss of Interest in Activities You Once Enjoyed (Anhedonia)
Reduced excitement or pleasure in hobbies, social outings, and daily routines.

• Constant Fatigue and Low Energy
Feeling drained both physically and mentally, even after a full night's sleep.

• Unexplained Changes in Appetite or Weight
Significant weight fluctuations due to overeating or loss of appetite.

• Sleep Problems
Difficulty sleeping, waking up too early, oversleeping, or restless nights.

• Feelings of Worthlessness or Excessive Guilt
Persistent self-blame, guilt over minor issues, or feeling like a burden.

• Difficulty Concentrating or Making Decisions
Mental fog, forgetfulness, and trouble focusing on even simple tasks.

• Irritability, Restlessness, or Anger
Increased frustration and mood swings — often more noticeable in men and teenagers.

• Physical Aches and Pains Without a Medical Cause
Headaches, muscle pain, and digestive issues not explained by physical illness.

• Thoughts of Self-Harm or Suicide
This is a mental health emergency — seek immediate professional help.

Why Getting Help Matters

The numbers tell a clear story:

• Over 280 million people worldwide live with depression, yet more than 75% in low- and middle-income countries receive no treatment.
• In India, 1 in 20 adults is living with depression, and 15% of adults — about 23 million people — need active mental health support.
• Depression is the leading cause of disability globally.
• In 2022 alone, India recorded 171,000 suicides, with many linked to untreated depression.

💡 You are not alone — early intervention and the right support can be life-changing, helping you recover faster and protect your overall well-being.
