6 Mental Health Red Flags Women Shouldn’t Ignore:
You must’ve heard people using the words depression, anxiety etc too often, but do you have an idea of what depression looks like?
1. Persistently Feeling Low: Occasional Highs and lows are a normal part of life, but if you find yourself feeling persistently low for more than two weeks, which is interfering with your personal, socio-occupational routine, it may indicate an underlying issue such as Depression.
2. Changes in Sleeping Patterns: Both insomnia and oversleeping can be warning signs of mental health illness. Early intervention can be helpful
3. Loss of Interest in Activities: Every person has different interests, be it your passion or your hobbies. Losing interest in any of them or something that you previously enjoyed can be a red flag that we should never miss. This detachment often leads to a sense of worthlessness and is very frustrating.
4. Recurrent, Extreme Mood Swings: Very commonly used term, mood swings are totally normal. But repeatedly having extreme mood swings or a labile mood which switches in seconds to minutes, interfering with your daily life activities might be indicative of bipolar disorder or other mood disorders.
5. Social Withdrawal: Social withdrawal or isolation can be a sign of depression. There is a constant feeling of hopelessness in a person who is going through it and he/she has lost interest in interacting with their family and friends. If you or your loved one are finding it increasingly difficult to connect with them, it’s important to reach out for help.
6. Unexplained Physical Symptoms: Sometimes, mental health issues are presented as physical symptoms in the body. These can be chronic pain without a clear medical cause, frequent headaches, gastric issues, sweating, feeling of dissociation with the body or the environment can sometimes be because of a mental health condition.
