High-Functioning Depression Test

The hardest type of depression is often considered to be treatment-resistant depression (TRD), where standard treatments like medication and therapy are less effective. This form of depression may require more advanced interventions such as electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) or transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

If you're experiencing symptoms like persistent low mood, lack of enjoyment in activities, fatigue, and feelings of worthlessness yet still managing your daily life effectively, you may be struggling with high-functioning depression. You may also take a test for high-functioning depression.

High-functioning depression can be treated without medication through therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, regular physical exercise, and lifestyle changes. These interventions focus on developing coping strategies and addressing negative thought patterns.
