Depression or something lesser?

Post Reply New Topic

Ok now I have considered that this may sound a little silly and somehow insulting to those diagnosed with depression but here goes, for the past 2 years I have been exhausted day and night and have been short tempered and have virtually taken an instant dislike to anyone and everyone I have come across, I don't have any friends and have been through the motions that people often suggest such as joining groups of leisure and I still feel the same, and recently I read somewhere on the internet that one reason for being exhausted all the time constantly, even with good amounts of sleep and exercise is that you can be depressed and not know it, and recently this has been niggling at me as I can't help but wonder if I really am depressed and if so how do I find out, I am a perfectionist with virtually all I do and I find myself smiling throughout the day but I at the end of each day I find myself being fed up with life, and exhausted both physically and mentally more often than not by midday. I get teary eyed/watery eyes at often seeminlgy random times however more frequently at night and I even shake sometimes, so if anyone can direct me in a good direction for how I can get some help and support on whether its nothing or is something then it would be much appreciated!

I felt the same way, the last year that I was at the factory. I quit, and Mick Avory no longer walked the floors of that abandoned job site. I was diagnosed with Clinical Depression, 6 months before I threw in the towel.
