Depression is a curable illness that includes identification at first stage and treating it by understanding different factors that caused it. We do not ask how or why, we believe in talking and understanding. Evidence-based treatments are practiced through whatsapp call.
Through regular sessions one can feel lighter in thoughts and will start taking the situation positively.
