Psychologist Inés María Davalillo indicates that depression greatly affects a person’s daily life.
One of the disorders that has gained more strength following the 2020 pandemic and is considered a “silent friend” is depression.
However, psychologist Inés Davalillo insists that close attention must be paid to it.
He points out that it greatly affects the person’s daily life and functionality on a daily basis, as well as how they recover their life.
The specialist indicates that it is very important to identify some factors for the companions who are with the person who suffers from depression, which may seem normal to them due to the situations they experience.
“For example, when we see that people do not take adequate care of their image, especially when before they worried regarding how they dressed, regarding always being groomed; perhaps for the people who are outside it is an extremely important signal,” he emphasizes.
Other factors of a depressed person are not wanting to share and attend family or friend gatherings.
Davalillo points out that the disorder is not only seen in an individual who only spends his time crying or locked up. Sometimes it simply manifests itself in a lack of interest in participating in any type of activities.
“If the person is no longer interested in going to play a sport, going dancing (…) is an indicator that something is happening in their emotional well-being,” he says.
Clinical indicators
The psychologist adds that there are some clinical indicators that are fundamental and should not be overlooked.
One of them is crying continuously without knowing what the reason is. Also when the person has suicidal ideas. “This tells us regarding the emotional well-being of the person affected,” she says.
The psychology specialist highlights that it is essential to know these symptoms so that the situation is treated professionally.
Although there is a situation that triggers depression, it is not clearly identified what causes the person discomfort.
Davalillo recommends that it is essential that the individual receive professional psychiatric and psychological treatment. In addition, he should be in the company of family and friends to receive support in the face of this illness.
“So that person can improve, return to their daily lives, be functional once more and can enjoy their daily lives,” he asserts.
Sadness is not depression
Davalillo says that you have to know how to differentiate depression from sadness. The latter is a normal human emotion and responds to a particular situation of loss such as breakups, the death of a loved one, or a very valuable object.
“If we are faced with these situations, it is natural for the person to feel sadness,” he maintains.
