Sign 8. Physical Symptoms
Depression can manifest in various physical symptoms, such as headaches, digestive problems, and chronic pain. These symptoms may not have a clear medical cause, and women may find that they persist despite attempts to address them through traditional medical treatment.
Recognizing these physical symptoms as potential signs of depression is important. If you or someone you know is experiencing unexplained physical symptoms in conjunction with other depression signs, it may be beneficial to seek help from a mental health professional. They can work with you to address the underlying emotional issues that may be contributing to these physical symptoms.
