Answers:
Depression is a normal part of life sometimes!. It is ok to feel down now and again!. If you are sleeping too much (bad sleep and staying in bed) or don't want to get up and take a shower/start your day!. If you get no pleasure out of activities that would normally make you happy and if it goes on for a couple of weeks like this, you would be considered depressed!. If it is just a bad day every now and then, realize that it will pass and everyone has them!. Hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Everyone gets depressed from time to time!. True depression is a condition where you lose interest in everything around you, including things you once enjoyed for long periods of time for 2-3 weeks or longer!. It is usually do to a chemical imbalance!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

You just know!. You will feel bad all over, not want to do anything, not want to be with anyone, you will hate yourself, cry, and the list goes on and on!. These feeling can last a very long time if you don't seek treatment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Try to analyze yourself well!. You might probably be just feeling sad and this happens to everyone!. Sadness is different from depression!. You can only say you are depressed if you have symptoms like loss of appetite or weight gain, having trouble sleeping or you sleep a lot, feeling hopeless, worthless, and dejected, you feel like you lack energy, and/or you have thoughts about suicide!. You should be experiencing these symptoms at least every two weeks and has been happening at least in the last two months!.
I know very well about depression because I studied psychology and I have also suffered from depression for a veeeery long time!. But I hope that you are doing okay!. If you really are worried about you being depressed, visiting you doctor won't hurt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
