  • Hopeless in Depression
    Sep 5 2025

    Hopelessness is one of the most painful and defining parts of depression. In this Ten Minute Therapy video, we break down why hopelessness takes such a strong hold, and how it keeps people stuck in the cycle of depression.

    I also explain the classic learned helplessness study—where researchers discovered how repeated failure and lack of control can lead to giving up—even when escape or change is possible. Understanding this concept sheds light on why depression can make life feel so overwhelming and unchangeable.

    By recognizing the role of hopelessness, we can begin to challenge its grip and take small, meaningful steps toward hope and healing. If you’ve ever struggled with depression—or love someone who does—this video will help you better understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
