Can You Recognize the Signs of Depression?
Signs of Depression
Many depressions can be overcome with a short course of antidepressants, certain specific vitamins and supplements, social support, and exercise. Nevertheless, there are some situations in which depression is extremely serious, and it generally will not go away on its own.
What are the signs of depression that we should look for:
- Suicidal thoughts, thoughts of death, or suicidal attempts
- Feelings of worthlessness or guilt
- Feelings of hopelessness and/or pessimism
- Loss of interest in activities that you used to enjoy
- Restlessness or having trouble sitting still
- Fatigue or decreased energy
- Difficulty with concentrating
- Difficulty with sleeping or oversleeping
- Appetite and/or weight changes
- Aches and pains that cannot be explained by a clear medical cause
If you have any of the above signs and symptoms for two weeks or longer you should consult a physician or nurse practitioner or contact our clinic.
