How do you combat feeling depressed after therapy?

Answer 1

It depends on the individual. If you're still feeling depressed, it might be a good idea to try out other therapies. There are many different kinds of therapy such as:

-Cognitive Therapy

-Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy

-Existential Therapy

-Gestalt Therapy

-Bowenian Therapy

-Multicultural Therapy

-Exposure or Implosive Therapy

or any mixture of these in theory or in practice, which is called eclectic therapy. It could also be that the therapist wasn't a good match for you or this is a new wave of depression. Sometimes, it is good to go out and do things with people like taking walks on a sunny day or something cheerful. If symptoms persist, there may be a chemical imbalance. In that case, look into SSRIs (anti-depressants).

In any case, make sure you always have someone to talk to that you can trust.
