Are depressed people sensitive to what other people say?!


Question: Are depressed people sensitive to what other people say!?
Answers:
For me it depends on how depressed I am at the time!.
Sometimes I can take something the wrong way!. I will turn some comment into something negative!. I will think the person is thinking negatively about me!. I also realize this is because I am feeling poorly about myself and the comment might not be intended the way I took it!.
I am my own worst enemy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think overall its the person's personality that has more to do with sensitivity rather than depression!. However, I think depressed people tend to be more introverted,dwell on things more and have lower confidence so are more likely to be sensitive!. I know this is true of me!. Wheras people who arent depressed are probably more likely to brush things off or forget about them cuz they've moved on to think about something more significant things!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi,
From my experience, (which im going through now),
I get very very sensitive from the most silliest things that sombody says to me!.!.it hurts my feelings way too much and i just dwell and think about it for hours and hours!.!.!.!. Ive just recently started taking medication to controll these horrible feelings!. Ive taken medication before in the past to control anxiety/depression, so I know that it will help me overcome being so sensitive!. See your doctor to take a low dose of medication to help you feel more stronger and less sensitive!.

Yes, it's actually a symptom of low serotonin levels!.
It has nothing to do with insecurity or anything, depression is accompanied by many self-depreciating thoughts, so those with depression are quick to take other people's comments as evidence of short-comings!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No!. Insecure people are overly sensitive!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would think so, but I am no expert!. They might misinterpret what another says, take it the wrong way etc!.
