Hey there! I feel like I suffer from depression. Yet, its such a common term these days I wonder if I am exaggerating. Before I consult a doctor I wanted to ask this community if you can share how you felt when you were depressed? I mean, not just in a bad mood but actually diagnosed with depression.

Suffering from depression is terrible. It is just this persisted low mood where you feel down, loose interest in anything and anyone surrounding you, even people you love. I couldnt concentrate, I felt useless and worthless and even considered harming myself from time to time. I hope that helps.

I was never diagnosed with depression, and I believe I have never actually suffered from it since I am more of an anxious person. However, I am a psychologist, and I can say that one BIG symptom is that this low mood somehow affects your everyday life. If you're not motivated to do your usual things, and nothing seems to give you joy and pleasure, your daily life changes, which is a symptom of big S. Hope it helps :)
