What does depression feel like?

Depression often feels like a heavy emotional burden that makes even simple tasks difficult. Many people describe it as:

• A constant sense of sadness or emptiness
• Loss of motivation or interest in things once enjoyed
• Fatigue and low energy despite rest
• Feelings of guilt, hopelessness, or worthlessness
• Difficulty focusing or making decisions.

Everyone’s experience may differ, but the common thread is that it significantly interferes with daily living. In Australia, services like counselling, psychology, and NDIS-funded supports can help individuals regain balance.
