Depression or just sadness?!


Question: Depression or just sadness!?
I am always sad, but I like being by myself and crying!.
I have reasons to be sad due to events in my life that hurt me inside and cause me to be sad, but sometimes I feel awful for no reason at all and I cry and think about how hopeless my life feels and how I don't deserve to be here!. I also get sad over really small things and am angry most of the time!. Is this just sadness or depression!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Depression actually lasts over 2weeks so if your completely in the dumps for more than that length of time then it's serious, but for people until 18 its harder to track depression so I wouldn't over think it too much, but if it lasts a long time seek real help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
