I have clinical depression. I just lost my job, one of many. The difference is that I actually really liked this job. They told me I havent learned anything and im not improving. It hurts me a lot. I hurt everyone and everything I care about. I can't keep a job even if I like the job. Idk what to do...

[tasneemfahoum]

clear explanation thanks a lot for your effort!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[MICKEYISLOWD]

Well I have double depression for sure. Here in the UK there isn't available treatments except for MIND which is where your doctor sends you. I have been there before and they are barely trained care workers who don't understand what they are doing.

I've been depressed/everyday for the last three years. No medications work. I don't know what to do. I wake up have some caffeine and than crash. I have to push myself to do everything. I feel very slowed down and exhausted all day.n

I count 8 symptoms in the acronym. Video says 5 out of 9. Am I missing one? Serious question…

Depression seems to be a major public health disorder to be address

I like thinking of MDD as being "In 5 SAD CAGES 4 two weeks"
In-terest (decreased)

5 (need 5 Sx)

Sleep disturbances
Appetite (decreased)
Depressed mood

Concentration (decreased)
Activity (psychomotor retardation)
Guilt
Energy
Suicide
