Dysthymia, also known as persistent depressive disorder, is a subtle yet enduring form of depression that can last for years. Often beginning in childhood or adolescence, it makes people feel persistently low even if they appear outwardly “fine.” It affects sleep, appetite, energy, and daily functioning — making everyday life feel more difficult. Therapy and medication can help bring relief and restore emotional balance.Concept and Edit by Pooja Shah#Dysthymia #ChronicDepression #MentalHealthAwa
