You are allowed to ask for help without feeling like a burden.

You are allowed to ask for help without feeling like a burden. Living with depression can make it hard to reach out—it tells you that you're too much, or not enough. But those thoughts aren’t the truth. Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or numb doesn’t mean you're failing—it means you're hurting and deserving of care. You don’t have to carry the weight alone; support is here, and healing is possible, one step at a time..

Feel familiar?

  • I feel like I’m moving through life in a fog—disconnected, tired, and unmotivated, even for things I used to enjoy.

  • Some days it’s hard just to get out of bed, and I constantly feel like I’m falling behind or letting people down.

  • No one really sees how much I’m struggling because I’ve gotten good at pretending I’m okay.


  • I keep wondering if things will ever feel different, or if this numb, heavy feeling is just how it’s going to be.

Depression can be invisible to others but all-consuming on the inside. You may find yourself constantly putting on a brave face, showing up for work, family, or friends—while feeling completely empty or overwhelmed beneath the surface. It’s exhausting to keep functioning when every part of you feels weighed down by sadness, hopelessness, or numbness. Even simple tasks can feel impossible, and the pressure to “just snap out of it” only adds to the isolation.

But you're not alone, and you don't have to keep doing this on your own. Therapy offers a space where you don’t have to pretend—where your pain is valid and your story matters. Together, we can explore what’s been holding you down, reconnect with your strengths, and help you find relief, clarity, and hope again. You deserve support that meets you where you are, without judgment or pressure to be anywhere else.
