Severe Depression is a bump in life
It is a fact that depression ranges in seriousness from mild, temporary episodes of sadness to extreme, persistent depression. Clinical depression is the more severe form of depression, also known as major depression or major depressive disorder. A person having a major depressive episode usually exhibits a very low mood, which pervades all aspects of life, and an inability to experience pleasure in activities that were formerly enjoyed. In severe cases, depressed people may have symptoms of psychosis which include delusions and hallucination. An individual has poor concentration and memory (especially in those with melancholic or psychotic features), withdrawal from social situations and activities, etchetera. Insomnia is common among the depressed. In the typical pattern, a person wakes very early and cannot get back to sleep.Hypersomnia, or oversleeping, can also happen. He or she is always tired or exhausted, feeling annoyed and wants to be left alone.
Other signs of extreme depressions are:
Feeling sad, empty or tearful
Significant weight loss when not dieting, weight gain, or decrease or increase in appetite
Insomnia or increased desire to sleep
Either restlessness or slowed behaviour that can be observed by others
Fatigue or loss of energy
Feelings of worthlessness or excessive or inappropriate guilt
Significantly reduced interest or feeling no pleasure in all or most activities
Trouble making decisions, or trouble thinking or concentrating
Recurrent thoughts to hurt or attempt to terminate own life.
If someone or am I drowning and scream SOS, will YOU be there?
