Could somebody please tell me the overt, and hidden symptoms of depression? I feel edgy, and unmotivated, but I am not sad, like I would think would be a sign of depression. I am not edgy, and unmotivated all the time, but I think I am like this far too often lately. Thank you

One of the most common symptoms of depression is also sleeping a lot. If you sleep more than 9 or 10 hours a day you could be suffering from depression.

Depression is a mental illness. Symptoms are physical and mental. Do any of the following symptoms sound familiar?

You feel miserable and sad.

You feel exhausted a lot of the time with no energy .

You feel as if even the smallest tasks are sometimes impossible.

You seldom enjoy the things that you used to enjoy-you may be off sex or

food or may 'comfort eat' to excess.

You feel very anxious sometimes.

You don't want to see people or are scared to be left alone. Social activity may feel hard or impossible.

You find it difficult to think clearly.

You feel like a failure and/or feel guilty a lot of the time.

You feel a burden to others.

You sometimes feel that life isn't worth living.

You can see no future. There is a loss of hope. You feel all you've ever done is make mistakes and that's all that you ever will do.
You feel irritable or angry more than usual.

You feel you have no confidence.

You spend a lot of time thinking about what has gone wrong, what will go wrong or what is wrong about yourself as a person. You may also feel guilty sometimes about being critical of others (or even thinking critically about them).

You feel that life is unfair.

You have difficulty sleeping or wake up very early in the morning and can't sleep again. You seem to dream all night long and sometimes have disturbing dreams.

You feel that life has/is 'passing you by.'

You may have physical aches and pains which appear to have no physical cause, such as back pain or headaches.

Make an appointment with your doctor immediately. Address this issue now. Don't wait.
