RE: Problem and Solution 1: Battling Depression

in GEMS4 years ago

I agree with @jack205, it is a post that is currently relevant as being isolated and alone during quarantine triggers depression, so does external factors related to job loss, financial problems, domestic issues, forced long-distance relationships among many others. Psych therapists are now available online for zoom sessions per hour. When I went through a very dark time, writing and art tremendously helped me along with these hourly sessions.

Hi Arni! I’m glad that writing and art has immensely helped you as effective therapies against depression. Pursuing your passions is a great way to redirect negativity, discouragement, and despair into more rejuvenating activities that boost your well-being.

It’s also good to know that psyche therapists are available online for zoom appointments to deal with this dreaded illness. Do you have any idea how much they charge for their hourly sessions?

Private hourly sessions online would range from Php 1.5k for a counselor and Php 2 to 4k for a psychologist depending on their qualifications and professional experience. The duration of the treatment depends on the therapist and the individual's progress during the sessions.

Wow, that’s so interesting to know! Depression has certainly created a thriving business of its own. Thank you for the valuable information! Happy weekend! 😊

Haha, sorry to laugh but it is indeed a thriving business. Thank you and wishing you a happy weekend too!

No worries but it’s the reality! I have to laugh with you too...haha 😊
