Dysthymia, also called persistent depression, is a low mood that stays for a prolonged and constant period, although it is usually less intense than a major depressive episode. Because of its duration, it can go unnoticed for a long time.

How it can present: near-daily low spirits, fatigue, low self-esteem, difficulty concentrating, and little enjoyment of everyday activities.

When to seek help? If sadness or lack of energy persists and affects your daily life, it is worth not putting off the visit.

Which specialist treats it? The psychiatrist and the psychologist are the right professionals to support this process. Talking with one of them can help you understand what is happening and feel supported.
