DEPRESSION

Everyone feels down now and then, right? You just did not think it would last so long and feel so bad. You either eat nothing or everything, especially every single comfort food you love. Plus, you just want to sleep all the time and stay home. Your friends wonder where you are and why you don’t return their texts or phone messages. You have not been to the gym for a couple months and when you stopped that you knew something just wasn’t right.

​

Here is what depression can feel like:

• Feeling down, sad, depressed

• Not doing or enjoying the things that used to interest you

• Fatigue or sluggishness

• Change of weight or appetite

• Sleep difficulties

• Feelings of worthless or poor self-esteem

• Inability to concentrate or focus

• Repeated thoughts of death or suicide
