Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I have depression or just a low mood?

Arrow Down

Ordinary sadness comes and goes and is usually tied to something specific. Depression is low mood or loss of pleasure lasting most of the day, nearly every day, for at least two weeks, with changes in sleep, appetite, energy and concentration. A clinical psychologist can assess this properly; these signs are a guide, not a diagnosis.

Should I see a psychologist or a psychiatrist for depression?

Arrow Down

Both can help, and they often work together. A clinical psychologist provides psychotherapy, which is effective on its own for mild to moderate depression. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who can prescribe medication, which may be recommended for more severe or persistent symptoms. Starting with either is fine; you will be referred if needed.

How does therapy help with depression?

Arrow Down

Therapy for depression works on the patterns that keep it going: withdrawal from activities, self-critical thinking and unresolved losses or conflicts. Approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy help you gradually re-engage with life and change unhelpful thought habits. Regular sessions also provide steady support while energy and motivation return.

How long does depression therapy take?

Arrow Down

A typical course runs 12–20 weekly sessions, with many people feeling some improvement within the first six to eight. Recurrent or long-standing depression may need longer, followed by less frequent sessions to prevent relapse. Depression therapy in Beylikdüzü is available in person or online, and the plan is reviewed regularly rather than fixed.

What should I do if I have thoughts of harming myself?

Arrow Down

If you have thoughts of harming yourself or ending your life, please call 112 or go to the nearest emergency department now, or tell someone you trust so you are not alone. This is a medical emergency and help is available around the clock. Therapy for depression continues once the immediate risk has been addressed.
