Am I clinically depressed?!

I know how you feel!. I'm going through the same thing only I've never told anyone!. That makes it harder!. You should tell someone close to you if you can!. I think about suicide everyday!.!.!.that's pretty bad!. If it gets to that point, go to a doctor!. I'm 17 and couldn't go unless i told my parents and I don't want them to know!. Best of luck!.

You have a few of the classic symptoms of clinical depression!. Signs and symptoms of depression include:

Loss of interest in normal daily activities
Feeling sad or down
Feeling hopeless
Crying spells for no apparent reason
Problems sleeping
Trouble focusing or concentrating
Difficulty making decisions
Unintentional weight gain or loss
Irritability
Restlessness
Being easily annoyed
Feeling fatigued or weak
Feeling worthless
Loss of interest in sex
Thoughts of suicide or suicidal behavior
Unexplained physical problems, such as back pain or headaches

Depression symptoms can vary greatly because different people experience depression in different ways!. A 25-year-old man with depression may not have the same symptoms as a 70-year-old man, for instance!. For some people, depression symptoms are so severe that it's obvious something isn't right!. Others may feel generally miserable or unhappy without really knowing why!.

You may want to speak to a professional (therapist, pastor, some impartial person you trust) about your feelings!. Many people do at some point(s) in their lives!.

Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
