Depression Sets In Without Warning: Recognizing the Signs & Seeking Help
Depression often arrives unannounced — not always as overwhelming sadness, but sometimes as numbness, fatigue, or disconnection. It's a silent struggle that can affect anyone, regardless of their circumstances. Recent studies indicate that approximately 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experience mental illness each year, highlighting the widespread nature of this issue.
Recognizing the signs early and seeking support is crucial. Here are some immediate resources available 24/7:
