Depression Treatment in Orange County, California

We Accept Most Major Insurances

Depression is very common in people diagnosed with eating disorders – it is very easy to be vulnerable to the development of a major mood disorder when you are struggling to eat well or are preoccupied with your body and appearance to the point of obsession.

This is why it is important to tackle both obstacles simultaneously and undergo co-occurring depression treatment while you are also recovering from avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) or laxative abuse.
At Wellness Recovery Center, we help adult women to improve their relationship with food and heal their depression – reach out to us today and let us protect your mental health.

What Is Depression?

Depression refers to a mental health condition characterized by a strong feeling of sadness and emotional fatigue.
It impacts all domains of life – a person with the symptoms of depression struggles to stay in touch with their family and friends, feels unable to succeed at work, loses interest in hobbies and activities that brought them joy, and sees no reason to make any kind of effort in life to the point of developing suicidal ideations.

Common Depression Symptoms

In many instances, it is hard to be certain someone is depressed – many people hide their true feelings, and the diagnosis can be a challenge when depression co-occurs with an eating disorder. Still, be mindful of the following signs if you suspect you or someone else may have depression:

Constant Sadness

Feelings of Guilt and Worthlessness

Low Energy and Inability to Focus

Self-Inflicted Isolation

Sleep Disturbances

Increased Use of Drugs and Alcohol

How Does Depression Co-Occur With Eating Disorders?

These days, most depression treatment centers provide integrated care – taking mood disturbances into account and treating them while also showing the patient how they can optimize their nutritional intake are the two key objectives of recovery facilities. Depression often triggers an eating disorder – a person may stop eating well if they believe their quality of life would improve at a lower weight or overeat as they are trying to deal with overwhelming sadness and loneliness and use food as an unhealthy coping mechanism.

An eating disorder like diabulimia or rumination disorder might also contribute to your depression, especially when it starts affecting your social and professional life.
Our depression recovery center believes in the effectiveness of integrated care – you should not focus only on your binge eating disorder or orthorexia nervosa and disregard additional mental health issues that may further exacerbate your mental wellness, and depression must be taken seriously and treated as soon as possible.
