Persistently sad or irritable mood

Pronounced changes in sleep, appetite and energy

Difficulty thinking, concentrating and remembering

Physical slowing or agitation

Loss of interest or pleasure in activities you used to enjoy

Feelings of guilt, hopelessness, emptiness and recurrent thoughts of death

Persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment, such as headaches, digestive disorders and chronic pain

If you answered YES to five or more of the above, it is very possible that you are suffering from depression. When you experience several of these symptoms at the same time, for more than two weeks, and they interfere with your normal functioning, professional treatment is needed.
