What Causes Anxiety?

Anxiety is complex and often influenced by a combination of factors, including:

Genetics: A family history of anxiety can increase your risk
Brain chemistry: Imbalances in neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine
Life experiences: Trauma, abuse, or chronic stress
Health conditions: Chronic pain, thyroid disorders, or substance use
Personality: Certain traits (like perfectionism) may increase vulnerability

At Proverbs, we don’t just treat symptoms we explore the full picture to understand what’s contributing to your anxiety and how to address it long-term.

Treatment Options for Depression

At Proverbs Mental Health Services, we take a comprehensive approach to treatment. Our psychiatric providers work with you to build a treatment plan that meets your needs and respects your story.

1. Psychiatric Evaluation & Diagnosis

Your provider will assess your symptoms, mental health history, and any physical factors that may be contributing to how you feel. From there, we’ll determine the best course of action.

2. Medication Management

Antidepressant medications can help correct chemical imbalances and relieve symptoms. Our providers will guide you through options, dosages, and expected outcomes, adjusting as needed.

We stay up to date on both traditional and newer treatments (including options like intranasal esketamine, if applicable) and will always prioritize safety and effectiveness.

3. Ongoing Follow-Up Care

Depression recovery is not a “one and done” process. We stay with you, checking in regularly, adjusting treatment if needed, and offering space to talk, reflect, and grow.

What Causes Depression?

Depression doesn’t have one single cause it’s often the result of multiple factors working together:

Genetics: A family history of depression or other mood disorders
Life Events: Trauma, loss, abuse, or significant life changes
Brain Chemistry: Imbalances in serotonin, dopamine, or other neurotransmitters
Health Conditions: Chronic illness, chronic pain, or hormonal changes
Substance Use: Alcohol, drugs, or withdrawal effects
Environmental Factors: Isolation, ongoing stress, or lack of support

Depression can affect anyone—regardless of age, gender, background, or personality. It’s not a sign of weakness. It’s a medical condition, and it deserves proper care.

Do I Have Depression?

If you’ve felt “off” for a while—like you’re moving through life but not truly living—it could be depression. Some of the most common symptoms include:

Ongoing sadness, numbness, or hopelessness
Loss of interest in once-enjoyed activities
Sleep disturbances (too much or too little)
Low energy, fatigue, or physical heaviness
Changes in appetite or weight
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or shame
Irritability or sudden emotional shifts
Thoughts of death or suicide

Everyone experiences depression differently—some symptoms are loud, others are subtle. You don’t have to check every box to qualify for help. If your symptoms are persistent and impacting your daily life, it’s time to reach out.

What is Depression?

Depression is a mood disorder that affects how you feel, think, and function. It goes beyond temporary sadness—it's a persistent heaviness that can make even basic tasks feel overwhelming. For some, it’s a fog that never lifts. For others, it’s a loss of connection to joy, purpose, or identity.

There are several different forms of depression, each with unique patterns and triggers:

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD): Intense sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness lasting two weeks or more, interfering with daily life.
Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia): A lower-grade, long-lasting form of depression that can persist for years.
Postpartum Depression: Occurs after childbirth, affecting emotional connection, energy, and sense of self.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Depression triggered by seasonal changes, usually in winter months.
Bipolar Depression: A form of depression that alternates with episodes of elevated mood or mania.
Atypical Depression: Mood may lift temporarily, but symptoms like increased sleep, appetite, and sensitivity to rejection persist.
Psychotic Depression: Severe depression accompanied by hallucinations or delusions.

Depression isn’t just feeling sad. It can quietly take over your life changing how you think, how you feel, how you move, and how you relate to others.
