Depression symptoms
Depression is a very common medical condition affecting almost
100 million people in the world. About a quarter of the whole
population are prone to get at least one bout of depression in
their life time. Though depression is more common in women, it
also affects at least 12% of men allover the world. Sad part of
a serious case of depression is that the person is affected
physically as well, apart from degenerating mind. Depression is
an acute medical disorder, which regularly affects your thoughts
and behavior. Depression symptoms vary from person to person and
most often looks similar in every episode. These always include
the following:
1. Progressive loss of interest in work you used to perform
previously.
2. Feeling sad, or down in the dumps. Severe mood changes are
also one of the most important depression symptoms.
You may also display at least four of the following symptoms:
1. Restlessness and fickle minded
2. Feeling worthless or guilty. A sense of dejection
3. Increase or decrease in appetite or weight. Decreased
appetite and loss in eating good food.
4. Thoughts of death or suicide. Instant decision to commit
suicide and death is probably the most important depression
symptom.
5. Learning and acting disability.
6. Impaired sleeping habits and irregular sleep pattern.
7. Loss of vitality and will to live.
8. Loss of
interest or pleasure in activities that were once
enjoyed.
9. Persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to
treatment, such as headaches, digestive disorders, and chronic
pain.
If you're facing any one of these or a combination of depression
symptoms, do not waste a second and instead contact your
physician immediately. Many a time, people do not get help for
their depression symptoms, because they don't even recognize the
symptoms, have ego problems asking for help, or don't know that
many treatments are currently available.
Many people with severe forms of depression have numerous mood
cycles. They display very bad "lows" (depression) and critical
"highs" (also known as mania) that can last for a long time. In
between these episodes of highs and lows, they often feel
completely normal and healthy. Most common depression symptoms
during such outbreaks are less sleep, being easily distracted,
megalomaniac tendencies and doing things that feel good but have
very bad effects. Whatever you do, never take depression for
granted, as it may turn out to be the most serious health issue
in your future and a chance episode may create immense personal
problems for you and your family.
