Depression is not sadness. Anxiety is not nervousness. Both are medical conditions with identifiable causes and effective treatments — managed by Dr. Neha Dua Sobti, MD Psychiatry Gold Medallist.
These symptoms, present for two or more weeks, indicate depression.
A flatness that does not lift regardless of what is happening around you
Hobbies, socialising, food — nothing brings the pleasure it used to
Sleeping far too much or lying awake for hours despite complete exhaustion
Simple decisions feel impossible; reading a paragraph requires re-reading multiple times
Disproportionate self-blame for things that are not your fault
Exhausted after a full night's sleep; everyday tasks feel monumental
Avoiding people not from preference but from inability to engage
If you are experiencing these please contact us or a crisis line immediately
Anxiety affects the body as much as the mind.
Hard to control, jumping from one concern to the next even when everything is objectively fine
Physical symptoms triggered by anxiety — sometimes mistaken for cardiac problems
Snapping at people, on edge all the time for no clear reason
Turning down opportunities, cancelling plans to escape the anxiety
Sudden intense episodes of fear with physical symptoms — heart pounding, sweating, feeling of losing control
Difficulty falling asleep due to racing thoughts, or waking at 3am with your mind already working
Treatment is personalised — built around your specific condition, severity, and lifestyle.
Antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications when appropriate — carefully chosen, properly explained, monitored at every follow-up.
Evidence-based talk therapy and cognitive approaches — helping you understand patterns of thought and behaviour that maintain depression or anxiety.
Sleep, exercise, diet, and social connection are part of the treatment — not afterthoughts.
When to seek help: If symptoms have been present for more than two weeks and are affecting your work, relationships, or daily function — come in. There is no minimum severity required to deserve help.
