EDHA concern guide
Depression & Low Mood
Periods of low mood can affect motivation, energy, sleep, concentration, relationships and confidence. Professional support can help you understand what may be contributing and identify practical ways to move forward.
How counselling may help
- Explore contributing life events and patterns
- Build routines and behavioural steps that support recovery
- Work with unhelpful beliefs and self-criticism
- Strengthen coping, connection and problem-solving
When other care may also be appropriate
If you have thoughts of self-harm or suicide, severe inability to function, psychotic symptoms or an immediate safety concern, seek urgent in-person or emergency care.
EDHA is not an emergency service. If there is immediate risk, seek urgent in-person help through local emergency services or the nearest hospital. Government of India Tele-MANAS is available 24x7 at 14416 or 1800-89-14416.
