Depression
We all go through ups and downs in our mood. Sadness is a normal reaction to life's struggles, setbacks, and disappointments. Many people use the word "depression" to explain these kinds of feelings, but depression is much more than just sadness.
Some people describe depression as "living in a black hole" or having a feeling of impending doom. However, some depressed people don't feel sad at all -- instead, they feel lifeless, empty, and apathetic.
Are you depressed?
If you identify with several of the following signs and symptoms, and they just won't go away, you may be suffering from clinical depression.
- you can't sleep or you sleep too much
- you can't concentrate or find that previously easy tasks are now difficult
- you feel hopeless and helpless
- you can't control your negative thoughts, no matter how much you try
- you have lost your appetite or you can't stop eating
- you are much more irritable and short-tempered than usual
- you have thoughts that life is not worth living (Seek help immediately if this is the case)
