10 Symptoms of Mood Disorder

9. Social withdraw

For those of you who were extremely social before the onset of a mood disorder, it can be very hard to see how you will ever wish to be that way again. The desire for interaction has gone. You get no pleasure anymore from what interested you before, so why bother trying again? This kind of social withdrawal is typical for someone suffering from depression or other mood disorders. A lot of it has to do with not wanting to face the inevitable questions of "How are you?" In that respect, it is easier not to make the opportunity to be asked. This is why so many friends can drop away from those suffering from a mood disorder.
