Common Signs to Lookout For

Common Signs of depression include:

•  Frequent mood changes - they tend to angrier quicker, their emotions go from a positive emotion to a negative emotion very quickly and vise versa.
• Changes in appetite - if they suddenly start eating more or less than usual.
• Seclusion - when I became depressed, I noticed that I had started closing myself off from my family. I stopped talking to them, and after school, I automatically went to my room and stayed there for hours.

In reality though, depression is different for everyone. These are just some of the most reported signs.
