Description
Η κατάθλιψη είναι μια σοβαρή ψυχική διαταραχή που επηρεάζει τη σκέψη, τα συναισθήματα και τη συμπεριφορά του ατόμου. Συχνά συνοδεύεται από αίσθημα θλίψης, απώλεια ενδιαφέροντος για δραστηριότητες που παλαιότερα ευχαριστούσαν, αίσθημα κόπωσης και απομόνωσης. Οι αιτίες της κατάθλιψης μπορεί να είναι βιολογικές, γενετικές, περιβαλλοντικές ή ψυχολογικές, ενώ η θεραπεία συνήθως περιλαμβάνει ψυχοθεραπεία, φαρμακευτική αγωγή ή έναν συνδυασμό αυτών. Είναι σημαντικό να αναγνωρίσουμε τα σημάδια της κατάθλιψης και να ζητήσουμε βοήθεια, καθώς η έγκαιρη παρέμβαση μπορεί να οδηγήσει σε καλύτερα αποτελέσματα.

What it is

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

Identifying the distortions in a person's thinking that are causing problems and then examining these in the light of reality. Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them. Role-playing to better prepare for potentially problematic interactions with others. You become your own self-therapist.

It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Approach
