Dysthymia Treatment (Persistent Depressive Disorder)
Break the Cycle of Chronic Low Mood and Reconnect with Purpose
Dysthymia, also known as Persistent Depressive Disorder (PDD), can quietly diminish your quality of life over time. Though its symptoms may be less intense than major depression, the long-lasting emotional heaviness, fatigue, and lack of joy can feel just as burdensome. Many individuals live with this condition for years, often believing it’s just part of who they are.
At My Life Recovery, we understand the unique challenges of living with dysthymia—and we’re here to help. Through personalized treatment plans, evidence-based therapy, and holistic support, we guide individuals toward lasting relief, emotional balance, and a renewed sense of hope and meaning.

Understanding Dysthymia (PDD)
Chronic Symptoms That Quietly Impact Your Life
Dysthymia is a long-term form of depression defined by a persistent low mood that lasts for at least two years in adults (or one year in children and teens). While it may not involve intense depressive episodes, its ongoing nature gradually wears down mental, emotional, and even physical health.
Common symptoms of dysthymia include:
A persistent sense of sadness, emptiness, or low self-worth
Lack of energy or chronic fatigue
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
Decreased interest in daily activities or hobbies
Changes in appetite or weight
Sleep disturbances—either insomnia or oversleeping
Hopelessness or a general feeling of being “stuck”
Many individuals with dysthymia feel like they’re simply going through the motions, unable to fully experience joy or connection. But this condition is not permanent—effective, professional treatment can help you reclaim emotional clarity and confidence in your daily life.
