Hey everyone, today's video I'm going to talk

with you about the six signs of depression.

So sign number one: Feelings of hopelessness

And the reason that this is so prevalent with depression

is because often times if any of you have been

depressed, you know it can go on for a long period of time.

And during that, we think "is it ever going to end? Oh my god am I going to feel like this forever?"

And so that feeling of hopelessness and pessimism about our future is palpable, is everywhere, right?

We feel it all day. So that's why it's so important that if you're struggling with this

and if you think "hey I might have some of these signs" you should seek help. If you don't already

have a therapist, please reach out and get one. If you haven't already talked to your doctor about this

please reach out and talk to them as well, because the sooner we get ahold of this, the better.

Sign number 2: Restlessness or irritability.

And this can have to do with a lot of the other signs that I'll talk about because we may not be sleeping

well or eating well, and people can just make us really frustrated and piss us off. So we're really

Sign number 3: Now, this is something that we as therapists call anhedonia. But what that really means

in regular people terms is you don't have an interest or find pleasure in activities that you used to like and find

pleasure in. So if you used to love to paint and now you're like, ugh, I don't even want to think about it.

Or you used to have a book club you were involved in, or a sport you used to play with people and you no

longer want to participate, that's the sign I'm talking about.

Sign number 4: Overeating or Loss of appetite. Now, obviously, this is not otherwise attributed to an Eating

Disorder. That's something totally separate. But if you've always had a regular healthy appetite and now

you find yourself binge eating all day, or overeating till you kinda feel sick, or if you no longer have an appetite

and you had normal eating habits before, it could be attributed to depression and that's one of the signs.

Sign number 5: Suicide or suicide attempts. Or even suicidal ideation, like the thoughts of suicide. And obviously

this will have to do with the fact that we're really depressed and things have been feeling really bad to us lately

and so we may think about ending it all. If this is something that you are struggling with right now, please

please call 911, go to the hospital, contact your therapist, do whatever you can. Because we have to keep ourselves safe.

The final sign, sign number 6. Now this symptom, or these symptoms, are things that we feel in our bodies

because of our depression. And those are aches and pains, digestive issues, headaches. And the way that we know

that these are associated with our depression and not a general medical condition is that we've sought treatment

for them and they have persisted. So we've gone to our doctor for the headaches or the stomach aches and they

say everything is fine or they give us some medicine and nothing really helps it, and we still feel it

every day. Now obviously these are only six signs and symptoms of depression, and everybody experiences

things differently, right? But the great thing to know about all of this is that there's help out there.
