Serious symptoms: "melancholia" is a subtype of major depression. The person has severe vegetative signs: loss of energy, loss of appetite, motor slowing or agitation, and insomnia -- as well as feeling much worse in the morning. Medication can really help these signs of melancholia, along with the cognitive and affective signs of depression. A psychiatrist can evaluate you & make helpful recommendations.
