HEAL FROM DEPRESSION
Depression Treatment in Bucks County
With its impact on more than 20 million people each year, major depression is America’s most common mental health issue. In many cases, it occurs alongside serious drug or alcohol problems. If you’re affected by depression and addiction, you have a condition called co-occurring disorder. Effective dual diagnosis treatment in Philadelphia not only provides support for overcoming depression. It also helps you recover from your substance use disorder.
At Promont Wellness, we specialize in the treatment of depression as a co-occurring disorder. Our depression treatment program in Pennsylvania features client-focused, customized care. We’re dedicated to making recovery from depression and substance problems a realistic goal for people from all walks of life.
Understanding Depression
Depression is the common term for a group of conditions formally known as depressive illnesses. Almost three out of every four affected people have major depression. You may also develop something called a persistent depressive disorder, or PDD. Major depression is a classic example of a depressive illness. Its common symptoms include:
- Continual feelings of sadness
- A damaging sense of hopelessness, guilt, or helplessness
- Loss of interest in everyday activities
- Fatigue
- Difficulty thinking clearly
- Memory problems
As a rule, these symptoms take a severe form. They also occur during distinct episodes that last for at least two weeks. In PDD, the symptoms of depression are usually not as severe. However, they affect you on most days for at least two years at a time.
FIND THE RIGHT TREATMENT
Medication at Our Depression Treatment Center in Philadelphia
Promont Wellness’s depression treatment center in Pennsylvania features medication. The go-to options are a large, varied group of substances known as antidepressants. When you take an antidepressant, it increases the output of certain chemicals inside your brain. In turn, these chemicals can help ease the effects of depression.
The antidepressant you receive may belong to any of several classes of medications. These classes include SSRIs, SNRIs, and MAOIs. They also include atypical antidepressants and tricyclic antidepressants.
It’s important to keep certain things in mind when discussing antidepressants. First, you may need to try more than one medication before finding one that works for you. In addition, it can take a while before you can tell if any given option is having a positive effect. Your doctor will support you throughout this process.

What clients say about us...
“I’d like to thank Courtney from the bottom of my heart. She helped me through the scary process of getting into treatment and then treated me with respect and compassion. The treatment process was scary, vulnerable and uncomfortable, but she did everything she could to make me feel as comfortable as possible. I have become an active member of the recovery community and could not have done it without the guidance and expertise Courtney provided throughout treatment.”
