Are You Depressed Or Unhappy - What Is The Difference?

Do you know the difference between being depressed or sad right? I really think most people know the difference.
It's normal to feel sad from time to time. Everyone somewhere in life will experience sadness. Sadness is a natural reaction to a painful past. Depression is more extreme. This is a disease with clinical symptoms much more than sadness and can, if not treated lead to suicide.

The difference between sadness and depression in a person experiencing feelings that are stressful can logically tell me what it is that causes discontent, while the person is suffering from depression do not necessarily do so. People who suffer from pain, I do not know his feelings begin to heal in time. A person suffering from depression usually get worse and not see the end.
Depression can last for weeks, months or years. It is not something that no one can "snap out" as much as they want, they could. It's just not possible. The emotions are intense and overwhelming and believe me, nobody wants to consider taking their own lives.

If a person has a loss of interest in life in their daily activities, work, relationships or social gatherings of more than two to three weeks, and their mood is out of character, so a doctor visit would be in order.
Some of the major symptoms of depression are:

1. First Fatigue / lethargy or inability to sleep (insomnia)
2. Interest for social and sexual relations
3. Think third death and / or suicide
4. The lack of self-esteem and inappropriate guilt
5. Significant changes in weight
6. Does not focus on

If you have symptoms, you should consult your doctor. There are screening tests are available and there are a number of them available on the Internet as well.
So you watch. You are the most special person on this planet. There is no other dared you wish, your talents, skills or abilities. You can not be replaced and you have important things to do with your life. The only person you can control is you, then take care of yourself first and foremost. All and everything else is beyond your control. Start doing things today that make you feel good. You know what they are. We all count on it!
