Question 1

Does it make sense to see a therapist if I mostly feel flat or numb?

Accepted Answer

If flatness, numbness, or low mood is sticking around, talking with a licensed therapist is a reasonable next step. You do not need a crisis to ask for support. A therapist can listen to what the days have been like and talk with you about where to start. In Alma's Lewisville directory, browse therapists who treat Depression and read a few profiles.

Question 2

How do therapists work with low motivation?

Question 4

Can a therapist help me think about medication for Depression?

Question 5

Is therapy for Depression only for people who cannot function?

Will insurance cover therapy for Depression in Lewisville, and what should I expect to pay?

Not knowing the cost can be a reason to put therapy off.

Question 8

How long might therapy for Depression last?
