SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION AND LOW MOOD

Everyone's experience of low mood and depression is different, however, the poster below can help us to spot some of the signs of symptoms of depression in either ourselves or others.

Depression can also exist alongside many other concerns including anxiety; stress; trauma; relationships troubles; work issues; loneliness; body image; eating disorders; difficult feelings and emotions; bothersome habits and behaviours; past memories; bullying; money problems; not feeling good about ourselves; and much more. 
 
If you are looking to talk to someone about feeling depression, sadness, anxiety, grief, bereavement, low mood, difficult thoguhts and emotions or anything else, please feel free to get in contact and we can put you in touch with one of our experienced, warm and understanding therapists, counsellors and dietitians. Online and in-person appointments available.
 
In the meantime, take care and do something kind and compassionate for yourself today.
Best wishes,
Glasgow Anxiety and Depression Counselling Service (GADS) and Scotland Anxiety and Depression Counselling Service (SADS)

Myths & Stereotypes: Eating Disorders....Part 2

Myths and Stereotypes - Eating Disorders : Part 2 Eating disorders are not a ‘diet’. They are a mental health illness that can impact upon all areas of life and have negative, distressing and often life-threatening consequences. Eating disorders are characterised by having a difficult, negative or dysfunctional relationship with food and eating. This changes thoughts and feelings about food, and, consequently, the person's behaviours and habits surrounding food and eating.

Focus on.... Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (or EDNOS)

Focus on.... EDNOS/OSFED Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (or EDNOS) is now increasingly known as OSFED (Other Specified Feeding and Eating Disorder) accounts for the highest percentage of eating disorders. EDNOS/OSFED is just as serious and debilitating as any other form of eating disorder and needs to be taken more seriously. Unfortunately, however, in our experience, this is often not the case and many are not given appropriate treatment or support (whether from family, friends, professionals and others) and the condition can deteriorte and even change into another form of eating disorder.
