If you notice some of these symptoms, it might be wise to connect with a good psychotherapist. No one should suffer needlessly...
Signs of Depression:"I sit around and watch television all day. I don't feel like doing anything."
"I'm so tired. My body feels heavy. It's a chore to do a few dishes."
"I sleep off and on all day long."
"Nightmares. I get the wierdest nightmares."
"I get irritated over the littlest things these days. This isn't like me...well at least, not this much."
"I flip out over things that aren't even important and then I feel like a jerk afterwards."
"Sex! It's not in the picture."
"I don't want to bother them with my silly concerns."
"I can't see asking for help; I'm not sure even how I would go about doing that."
"I don't like to commit too far into the future cause I can never tell what mood I'll be in."
"I'm not into hanging out anymore. I don't mind meeting a friend here and there. Funny thing is, I feel so lonely."
"I can't answer the phone. I only listen to the messages. And, I sometimes don't return the calls."
Quote by Judith Guest:"Depression is not sobbing and crying and giving vent, it is plain and simple reduction of feeling...People who keep stiff upper lips find that it's damn hard to smile."
