Get free, confidential support from a depression hotline in Colombia

Depression is one of the most common mental health problems, affecting about 13% of people worldwide. Depression can affect people differently, but common feelings associated with depression include sadness, hopelessness, worthlessness, and guilt.

In Colombia, there are 3 free hotlines that support people experiencing the symptoms of depression. If you notice these signs of depression, consider reaching out:

• Any task you undertake feels exhausting, and you are not as efficient as before
• Even the smallest tasks take too much effort
• You find it difficult to socialize
• You eat more, and you crave sweets and carbohydrates
• You wake up during the night or at dawn and cannot fall asleep again
• Things that used to bring you joy mean nothing to you now
• You could feel slower in your movement, speech, and reactions than usual
• You feel worthless and deserving of disgust

Depression can be a response to a loss or great stress in your life. However, it can also happen for no obvious reason. Both experiences are fairly common but depression can make it feel like nobody will relate to what you're going through.

Depression can make you feel worthless, like you don't deserve or are beyond help. But this is not true. You deserve help and support from people who care about your situation. Helpline volunteers and counselors in Colombia care about what you're going through, want to support you, and help you find a path forward.

For free and confidential support with depression, sadness and feeling hopeless, consider contacting a hotline in Colombia today.
