Whether you are feeling sad more often than not or totally overwhelmed most of the time, depression is real and often more than just a chemical imbalance. We can work together to identify some of the roots of depression so you don't have to feel trapped by overwhelming sadness or hopelessness. We can learn to recognize triggers and situations that bring on more suffering and work to minimize their effect on your life. I am trained and work to understand the multiple facets of big, intense emotions so you will soon start to know how to live life without being debilitated by depression.

Exogenous or situational depression is caused by a circumstance such as a loss or event. Endogenous depression, which is characteristic of the person who says "I've struggled with depression my whole life" is often due to physiological causes and there is often a genetic/familial component; see the articles below. Nutraceuticals can be helpful as an adjunct to or in lieu of medication no matter what the cause. Sleep, exercise, sunlight exposure, good nutrition, and contact with others is important. https://thirtyyearsdowntherabbithole.substack.com/p/mopsys-tip-24-genomic-testing-part https://thirtyyearsdowntherabbithole.substack.com/p/mopsys-tip-33-if-your-depression?r=1easgq&utm_camp

Grey Matters International, Inc. and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D. handles depression and other emotional disorders in a very unique way. Most of therapy or counseling processes utilize validation, unconditional positive regard, and reframing as common techniques to get someone to heal from their depression. Though this can be helpful, it rarely fixes the core problem behind it and for tough cases we then refer them usually to a psychiatrist for medication which can have tons of side effects. Instead, why not try a natural and arguably more effective way to not just change your mind, but change the brain--where the depression is rooted. Contact us at kevin@kevinflemingphd.com.
