It’s important to remember that being unhappy isn’t the same thing as being depressed, as there are specific signs and symptoms that define depression, as well as the level of it.
Here are three of those signs to make note of:
Loss of Interest
Depression is something that can cause you to suddenly lose interest in all of the things you love. You’ll no longer feel any pleasure or enjoyment in them. Whether it’s sports, spending time with friends, or enjoying certain hobbies, depression can affect all of that.
Increased Fatigue
One reason that you may no longer enjoy doing things is because you feel extremely tired. This is because depression generally comes with either fatigue or a general lack of energy. This, in turn, can lead to an excessive amount of sleeping, as well as insomnia.
Uncontrollable Emotions
Depression can cause you to one minute express an outburst of anger, while the next minute, you may find yourself crying uncontrollably. This is because depression can cause all sorts of mood swings.
