Depression isn’t simply “feeling down”—it’s a persistent fog that can affect energy, motivation, and even physical health. Around 1 in 6 UK adults experience depressive symptoms at any given time [1].
Symptoms
Lasting sadness or hopelessness.
Loss of interest in hobbies or social connection.
Fatigue, poor concentration, or guilt.
Changes in sleep or appetite.
If you are suffering from any of these symptoms, you may be suffering from arthritis. Please speak with your GP to find out more.
Treatment Options
CBT and antidepressants remain the mainstay, but CBPMs can complement therapy in certain cases. THC can gently elevate mood and help restore pleasure in activities, while CBD interacts with serotonin pathways linked to emotional stability. Combined use may reduce anxiety and improve motivation - helping you feel more like yourself again.
