Depression Awareness Hindi
Depression is more than ordinary sadness. उदासी, रुचि कम होना, नींद या भूख में बदलाव, थकान और निराशा अगर कई दिनों तक बने रहें, तो परिवार को इसे गंभीरता से लेना चाहिए.
Everyone feels sad after loss, stress, conflict, or disappointment. Depression becomes a concern when low mood or loss of interest stays for many days, affects work or study, changes sleep or appetite, or makes a person feel hopeless. It may show as silence, irritability, body pain, tiredness, crying, anger, or withdrawal from family.
Hindi reminder: डिप्रेशन कमजोरी नहीं है. यह एक स्वास्थ्य समस्या हो सकती है, और सही सहायता से सुधार संभव है.
Speak calmly. Avoid saying “just be strong” or “stop thinking.” Ask what has changed, whether sleep and appetite are disturbed, and whether the person feels unsafe. Offer practical support for daily routine, food, sleep, and appointments.
Seek professional help when symptoms last for many days, affect daily life, or include hopelessness, self-harm thoughts, severe withdrawal, substance use, or major behavior change. In immediate danger, call 112 or go to the nearest hospital emergency department.
