Re: How do I know if I have depression? - January 22nd 2014, 11:15 PM

Hey there, Julia.

Truth to be told, symptoms of depression are quite hard to spot accurately if not diagnosed by a professional. However, there are some signs you can use as a quick indicator. Be mindful that these may be relative because only a doctor has the word to decide whether you are depressed or not.

The symptoms include constant feeling of numbness in your chest, clouded thinking, frequent sadness, and low self-esteem. You don't need to be hesitant about seeking professional help if it is for your well-being's sake. Opening up to your mum may be scary, but it could provide a great comfort.

I hope this is helpful

Love,
KW
