Facts About Depression

2. The Variety of Depression Symptoms

Many people associate depression with sadness. There are many symptoms related to the condition. People with depression may suffer from other health issues including fatigue, sleep disorders, loss of appetite, weight and sexual drive. Mentally, they may experience low self-esteem, anxiety, restlessness, confusion, and indecisiveness with thoughts of self-harm as well. An individual who seems in uncharacteristically low spirits for an extended period and exhibits any of these symptoms may be suffering from depression. There are many different ways to experience depression. Some people have functional depression. These people are capable of fulfilling their responsibilities but struggle with symptoms like any other person with depression.
