You may either have depression or you may be bipolar.
Either way, you should go to a doctor/therapist.
There are a lot of self remedies but sometimes you may need medication.
There are many different medications you can choose from but the only one I would make certain to stay away from is Paxil.
I took it for my social anxiety disorder and it made me suicidal and worse off then what I started with.
It can also 'cause a comatose state.
I know 2 other people who have taken it and neither of them have had good effects.
Deffinetely go to a doctor though.
How can you say you have it?
At one point of the life or the other, we all get that sort of feeling. If there is a cause, it is normal and called exogenous depression. That will be healed by time. But if there is no reason, it should be a cause for concern and you should get a consultation. Untreated depression may cause serious problems.
Good luck!
