Depression is a complicated illness that can be very hard to detect unless you are looking for the right symptoms.  Over 15 million Americans will suffer some type of depression this year and many will not even know that they have it.  2/3 of those never seek help.  Why is it hard to detect depression?  Unlike depression, the answer is easy.  Depression is often confused with every day issues people face, such as remorse over negative event .  Therefore, it is not always easy to distinguish between what is perfectly normal and what it a sign of danger. 

It’s not unusual to feel some negative feelings on occasion.  For instance many people feel a bit unhappy when they turn 40.  It’s seen as a big event during which people look back to determine the worth of their lives.  This may be depressing.  That’s not depression.  Depression is not a feeling that will come and go for brief encounters of sadness.  Depression sticks with people, and just gets more severe when not addressed.  It can take years to get this illness under control. 

Changes in eating or sleep patterns are symptoms of depression.  This isn’t to say a sleepless night or a day of over eating are symptoms, rather it would be an ongoing pattern.  Depression often sends people into themselves.  They feel hopelessness and helplessness.  They feel upset the more lonely they become.  They may want to reach out for help but cannot bring themselves to do so.  Relating to others in their lives is difficult.  Where they once may have been the life of the party they may now be barely noticeable.  These are symptoms in the early stages.

When depression has progressed into later stages it begins to become apparent in their ability to be compatible with others around them.  They find themselves silent when it’s time to speak up at work or in social situations.  They find it harder to face others as well as themselves.  Eventually suicide becomes an attractive option to escape the worthless life they now lead.  Early detection is a key to avoiding this terrible end.  Help is out there for people who suffer with depression.  The proper care and treatment can return the victims from suffering  to normalcy.  Ongoing symptoms of depression should prompt you to look for help.  Lives depend on it.
