Depression

Dallas Counseling for Depression

Adults. These are some common signs of depression in adults.
•    Feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. A bleak outlook — nothing will ever get better and there’s nothing you can do to  improve your situation.
•    Loss of interest in daily activities.  No interest in former hobbies, pastimes, social activities, or sex. You’ve lost your ability to feel joy and pleasure.
•    Appetite or weight changes. Significant weight loss or weight gain — a change of more than 5% of body weight in a month.
•    Sleep changes — either insomnia, especially waking in the early hours of the morning, or oversleeping (also known as hypersomnia).
•    Anger or irritability.  Feeling agitated, restless, or even violent.  Your tolerance level is low, your temper short, and everything and everyone gets on your nerves.
•    Loss of energy.  Feeling fatigued, sluggish, and physically drained.  Your whole body may feel heavy, and even small tasks are exhausting or take longer to complete.
•    Self-loathing.  Strong feelings of worthlessness or guilt.  You harshly criticize yourself for perceived faults and mistakes.
•    Reckless behavior. You engage in escapist behavior such as substance abuse, compulsive gambling, reckless driving, or dangerous sports.
•    Concentration problems. Trouble focusing, making decisions, or remembering things.
•    Unexplained aches and pains. An increase in physical complaints such as headaches, back pain, aching muscles, and stomach pain.
