Depression often weaves itself quietly into your daily life. You might find yourself moving through the world in slow motion, unable to summon energy—or even interest—in things that once brought you joy and fulfillment. This experience is not merely sadness—it is a shift in how you relate to time, purpose, and yourself. 

At Genesis TMS and Wellness, we understand how depression can manifest in deeply personal and often subtle ways. If you have been feeling off, disconnected, or uncertain about what is happening, speak to us. You may be able to benefit from NeuroStar TMS therapy, which can help people with major depressive disorder.

Emotional and Cognitive Disruption

Depression often creates a quiet but persistent shift in how you think and feel. You may notice a deep sense of emptiness or emotional dullness, even during moments that once brought you comfort or meaning. Simple decisions can feel paralyzing. Your concentration may slip, and once-familiar tasks can become mentally exhausting. 

Many describe a heavy fog that clouds their thinking and leaves them feeling disconnected from their own lives. At Genesis TMS and Wellness, we strive to ease your symptoms with NeuroStar TMS treatments that address this depression at the source.

Physical and Behavioral Shifts

Depression does not remain inside the mind—it reaches into your body in noticeable and draining ways. Your energy may vanish without warning. Sleep becomes unpredictable, offering too little rest or too much escape. Your appetite may disappear, or food may become a source of brief relief. You may feel a weight in your limbs, or a slowing down that turns routine tasks into grueling challenges. Some feel agitated or restless—caught between exhaustion and unease. 

Impact on Relationships and Daily Life

Depression can erode your ability to engage with the world around you. You may cancel plans, miss deadlines, or struggle to manage basic responsibilities—not out of choice, but because the effort feels too great. Isolation often follows, along with guilt or the belief that you are letting others down. Expressing what you feel can seem impossible, especially when words no longer seem to fit your experience. 

We understand how deeply depression can affect your relationships and daily rhythm. One study showed that 83% of subjects who received NeuroStar TMS treatment experienced a significant  improvement in their symptoms (Sackeim HA, et al. (2020). J Affective Disorders, 277(12):65-74).
