Depression & Anxiety
Depression & Anxiety
Anxiety, in a nutshell, is a feeling of fear, worry, and unease. Naturally, it has to do with physical and emotional sensations experienced when one is nervous and worried.
When one gets challenged by anxiety, there is a high chance that the person’s behavior and feelings can get out of place, control, and balance. Anxiety and stress have a crippling effect on different individuals and may impede different areas of one’s day-to-day life, which include relationships and job performance.
Depression, unlike feeling sad, affects your life daily. It makes it difficult for you to find enjoyment in your daily activities. At times you might also find getting out of bed impossible, while at other times, going about your typical day, tasks will seem impossible.
We at Zenicure Medical & Aesthetics focus on offering treatment that fights off the symptoms of depression and anxiety. Our treatments involve counseling on treatment options, including medication therapy and referral to psychotherapy.
