Depression is complex.
You’ve probably heard this before if you have Treatment-Resistant Depression. It’s the complexity that makes depression so hard to overcome sometimes. What works for one person might not work for another, which is why innovative treatment plans are essential for relief and healing.
Even though depression can look different for everyone, at its core, depression is pain. It is an endless cycle and a constant battle against an invisible enemy. And sometimes, it feels like you’re losing.
Depression is busy thoughts and negative feelings you wish you could change but lack the motivation and energy to alter them. It’s feeling ashamed of yourself for not being able to ‘snap out of it‘. It’s wanting better for yourself but feeling undeserving of it or guilty that you don’t feel okay in the first place.
Why is depression so hard to overcome?
Because it never really goes away. It ebbs and flows, comes and goes, but it always lingers in the background, waiting for the opportunity to pounce again. But despite how difficult it is, many people manage to overcome depression every day. So the opportunity to finally feel well and rested enough to start making positive changes is worth exploring.

Depression Can Be Frustrating & Isolating
help, leads to not getting help – or, at least, proper support.So many people suffer from depression in silence because they’re afraid to speak up or ask for help. This is one of the reasons why depression is so hard to overcome – because people are dealing with it on their own. Depression can be incredibly isolating, making people feel like they’re all alone in their battle. Unfortunately, this isolation only worsens things and makes it even harder to ask for help.
Depression Treatments Can Vary
Depression is often described as a “trial and error” illness because its causes vary significantly from one person to the next. What works for one person may not work for another, and it can be frustrating to feel like you’re constantly trying new things with no success. However, it’s important to remember that depression is a complex illness, and the journey to recovery can be a long and frustrating process of trial and error when it comes to medications.
