Why Is Self-Care So Important for Recovery from Depression and Preventing Relapse?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Depression is often accompanied by low mood, loss of energy, and social withdrawal. Numerous evidence-based studies show that cultivating brain-friendly lifestyle habits can regulate immunity, reduce inflammation, and enhance brain resilience, supporting your path to recovery. Additionally, using the PHQ-9 mental health screening<\/a> for self-assessment can help you recognize your psychological state early. When combined with an appropriate self-care plan, it can further strengthen your mental and physical resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
