Signs and Symptoms of Depression

The following are some signs that you can use to consider for couple therapy:

Frequent Personality Clashes: Fundamental personality differences can frequently result in recurring conflicts, whether they are related to introversion vs. extrovert, someone who spends lavishly vs. someone who saves, differences in one’s religious beliefs, values and so on.
Communication Patterns: Criticism, verbal abuse, harsh, demeaning words or breakdown in communication difference in expression can leave either or both partners feeling uncared for and neglected
Trust issues: Sudden or significant change in attitude, routine, behaviour or over-closeness to a friend resulting in a lack of trust in your partner
Behavioural Issues: Anger outbursts, emotional volatility, smoking, porn, gambling, and masturbation beginning to strain the relationship
Sexual Incompatibility: Differences in libido, frequency of sexual activity, lack of sexual urges, and low interest leading to unmet needs, discontentment and anger
Trauma: External events like loss of a loved one, accidents, major injury, financial ruin or internal events like physical, or sexual abuse leading to an estranged relationship
Social Media: Excessive need to be online compromises quality time in the relationship leading to emotional distance and loneliness
