Depression is a mental health condition that causes a person to feel sad, hopeless, and empty inside. People with depression can experience low moods and low energy. In severe cases, it can even cause a person to have suicidal ideation.
At Kembali, we understand that depression may severely impact day-to-day life. As such, we offer world-class treatment to help people manage the symptoms of depression so that they can live their lives without letting their illness take control of it.
There are different treatment options available for those struggling with depression. The most common treatment available is psychotherapy. During psychotherapy, you’ll learn how to identify and change troubling emotions to manage your symptoms.
Another treatment option available for depression is medication. Antidepressants like SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) and SNRIs (Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors) work by correcting chemical imbalances in the brain.
Rehab is when you go into intensive treatment, and it usually involves staying at a treatment facility. You’ll go through different therapies and receive comprehensive care from healthcare professionals.
Adelaide is the fifth most populated city in Australia, with a population of approximately 1.4 million people, and it is a city that is alive with art. It also has more live music venues per capita than any other city in the Southern Hemisphere.
But, underneath all the creativity is undoubtedly an underbelly of depression. According to the National Study of Mental and Wellbeing conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, approximately 43 per cent of people between the ages of 16 and 85 will experience a mental health disorder at some point in their lives.
Given the city’s large population, it’s no wonder that Adelaideans have a wide range of options to address their mental health needs. Some of these options include:
Here are some other local options that offer additional support in Adelaide.
While the treatment options in Australia are plentiful, and many of their treatment programmes can be effective, there are still several compelling reasons why you may want to fly to Kembali in Bali to seek treatment for depression. Some of these reasons include:
Depression can be a taboo subject, both culturally and professionally. Some cultures may shy away from discussing mental health at all. In some professions, being open about being depressed could be a hindrance. Seeking treatment in Bali provides enough distance that guests can be comfortable, knowing no one they know will see them.
Kembali uses time and tested therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based therapy. These therapies have proven to be effective at helping manage the symptoms of mental illnesses such as anxiety disorders and depression.
Guests at Kembali will have the opportunity to attend group therapy sessions. During these sessions, guests can make connections that can become invaluable sources of strength and encouragement. Patients can also learn from people in different stages of their recovery and find inspiration from their stories.
At Kembali, we provide world-class accommodations and a high standard of care for all our clients. Even when you factor in the cost of travel, seeking treatment with us in Bali can present a better value proposition than any local option in Australia. We can be a great choice if you’re trying to find cost-effective treatment.
Kembali’s treatment centre is built near a village, and our guests can visit it to experience Bali’s culture firsthand. Our guests can also visit Gunung Kawi Sebatu Temple, one of the island’s least visited temple complexes. Dance and art are also part of Ubud’s daily life; guests will get to experience it firsthand.
People worldwide come to Bali for their holidays, and there’s a good reason—few rival Bali’s natural beauty. The lush, tropical forests and gorgeous beaches are practically unmatched. However, this natural beauty doesn’t just serve to entice travellers. Clients at Kembali can reconnect with nature to help them recover.
If you’ve made up your mind and decided that Bali is the best place for you to get treatment, then the best way to travel to our facility is to fly. Your journey begins at Adelaide Airport (ADL), where direct flights can take you to Bali’s I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS).
Support for depression doesn’t end with inpatient treatment. People struggling with this mental health condition will continue to face struggles every day, so a proper aftercare programme is important to prevent relapse.
An aftercare programme will help you maintain emotional stability while navigating life after rehab. It will also encourage you to practice healthy habits for better mental well-being.
Towards the end of their stay, guests at Kembali work with our team of psychologists to create an aftercare support plan. This plan will outline resources and support available once you’re back in the outside world.
No matter what type of depression you have, it can take control of your life whether you want it to or not. Depression is a massive burden to bear, but it’s a burden that you have to bear alone.
Come to us at Kembali, and we’ll help you carry its weight and lift it off your shoulders. Reach out to us today, and we’ll get you on the road to recovery so that your depression doesn’t keep weighing you down.
