Everest Therapy Solutions
When depression shows up, life starts to shrink.
It can feel heavy, slow, and exhausting — even small things take effort.
Motivation drops. Enjoyment fades. You may start avoiding people, responsibilities, or things you used to care about.
Many people try to “wait until they feel better” before taking action.
Unfortunately, depression works the opposite way.
The less we do, the worse we feel.
And the worse we feel, the harder it becomes to do anything.
There’s nothing wrong with you.
You’ve just been pulled into a cycle your brain learned to repeat.

Why depression doesn’t improve with willpower
​
Depression isn’t just a feeling — it’s a pattern.
Your brain starts predicting that effort won’t pay off.
So it pushes you toward withdrawal, avoidance, and staying still.
Those choices make sense in the moment…
but they quietly teach your brain that life is smaller than it really is.
Therapy helps you interrupt that cycle.
