Depression is a mental health illness.More than just feeling down, clinical depression is a mood disorder characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness that don’t go away on their own. It is essential to recognize that feeling down on occasion is a normal – and important – part of life. Sad and distressful events occur in everyone’s life, and responding to them emotionally is healthy.
Sadness
The most common symptom of depression is a feeling of sadness or emptiness that lasts for more than two weeks. In the case of dysthymia, it can last for longer than two years. Dysthymia is a type of chronic depression in which a person’s moods are consistently low.
Worthlessness
Continual feelings of worthlessness, guilt, or helplessness often accompany the condition. People tend to focus on personal shortcomings or past failures and blame themselves when their life does not go the way they would like.
Irritability
Depression may cause people to get easily frustrated or angered, even over small or insignificant matters.
Fatigue
People with depression often experience lack of energy or feel tired all the time. Small tasks, like showering or getting out of bed, may seem to require more effort than one can manage.
Crying Spells
Sufferers may find themselves crying frequently for no apparent reason.
Apathy
People with depression commonly lose interest or stop finding pleasure in activities that they used to enjoy, including sex.
Restlessness
Agitation and restlessness, including pacing, an inability to sit still, or hand wringing, may occur with depression.
Lack of Concentration
People with depression may have a difficult time remembering, maintaining focus, or making decisions.
Withdrawal
Many people with depression shut themselves off from the world. They may isolate themselves, not answer the phone, or refuse to go out with friends.
Sleep Problems
People’s sleep habits are likely to change as a result of depression. They may not be able to fall asleep or stay asleep, or they may wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to go back to sleep. Other people may find they sleep for long periods and don’t want to get out of bed.
Overeating or Loss of Appetite
Depression can often cause a lack of interest in food and weight loss. In other people, depression leads to overeating and weight gain.
Thoughts of Suicide
Thinking or fantasizing about death is a serious sign that needs to be addressed right away.
