Small Group - Depression

Service Description

****This group's first meeting is September 26, 2022 @ 6:00 PM**** Depression is a very serious but treatable condition. I wish I could give you a good definition of depression but there are so many different types of depression, such as Clinical/Major Depression, Dysthymic Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, and Seasonal Affective Disorder. According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed.), more commonly referred to as DSM-5, even though there are many types of depression, they all share common features such as the presence of sadness, empty, or irritable mood, accompanied by somatic and cognitive changes that significantly affect the individual's capacity to function. What differs among them are the issues of duration, timing, or presumed etiology. Did you know that misdiagnosis of depression is very common? The key to this group is to join so that we all can learn, grow and heal together through sharing love and experiences of the many ways we have all struggled, and for some, have overcome, this painful problem. There is so much we can do together if we will only believe it! Blessings! Jeremiah 29: 11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for peace and not for evil, to give you a future and a HOPE."
