What Anxiety & Depression Can Feel Like

Anxiety and depression can show up in many different ways, and often occur together. 

You may be experiencing:
  • Persistent worry
  • Racing and/or intrusive thoughts
  • Feeling overwhelmed or on edge
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Changes in sleep or energy levels
  • Irritability, tension, or restlessness
  • Loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed
  • Feelings of sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness
  • Difficulty making decisions
  • Pulling away from relationships or responsibilities
  • Avoiding situations that trigger symptoms

You do not need a formal diagnosis to seek help. If any of this feels familiar, therapy for anxiety or depression can provide a supportive space to gain an understanding of what you're going through and develop strategies to help you move forward.

Common Concerns We Support

While experiences differ from person to person, our therapists support individuals dealing with concerns such as:
Depression

Depression can negatively impact how you think, feel, and interact with the world. It’s characterized by ongoing feelings of sadness, emptiness, hopelessness, or loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed. Depression can also disrupt your sleep, mood, appetite, motivation, and daily functioning.

Generalized Anxiety

Generalized anxiety involves persistent worry that can feel difficult to control and is typically out of proportion to the situation. You may overthink, feel tense, expect the worst, or struggle to relax, even during everyday scenarios.

Panic Disorder

Panic disorder is characterized by recurring episodes of intense fear or panic that can include symptoms such as a racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness, or feeling out of control. You may find yourself avoiding situations that could trigger another panic attack.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

OCD involves unwanted and distressing thoughts, images, or urges. It can also manifest as repetitive behaviours or rituals intended to reduce anxiety or prevent something bad from happening. 
These thoughts and rituals are often time-consuming and interfere with daily life. You may feel that you need to hide this from others so they don’t judge you which is further isolating your suffering from those you care about.

Postpartum Depression & Anxiety

The postpartum period can lead to emotional challenges that extend beyond the typical stress of adjusting to parenthood. Feelings of sadness, worry, overwhelm, guilt, or emotional disconnection can affect new parents and make it difficult to fully enjoy this stage of life.

Social Anxiety

Social anxiety is characterized by intense fear or discomfort in social situations, often accompanied by concerns about judgment, embarrassment, or saying the wrong thing. You might find yourself constantly rehashing social situations to pinpoint mistakes or avoiding them altogether.

Phobias

A phobia is an excessive, uncontrollable, persistent fear of an object, person, activity, or situation. Phobias can lead to panic attacks and avoidance behaviours that interfere with daily life, relationships, work, or activities you enjoy.

How Therapy Can Help

Therapy for depression or anxiety can help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and experiences and develop practical tools to manage symptoms.

Together, we may work to:
  • Identify thought, feeling, and behavioural patterns that are keeping you stuck
  • Build healthier ways of responding to difficult thoughts and emotions
  • Develop coping skills for stress and uncertainty
  • Improve emotional awareness and self-understanding
  • Gradually face avoided situations to reduce anxiety
  • Reconnect you with what matters most
