Depressed!: First, schedule an appointment with a local mental health counselor for assessment. Also, if you have not had your annual physical, schedule with your pcp to evaluate possible medical causes for depression symptoms.

Un-depressing: Dr ali's recommendations hit the bull's eye. Medical & psychological assessment are the starting point. Your tags show that you feel melancholy & hopeless- be aware that depression is a treatable condition. There is every reason for hope. Your quality of life can improve. Talking therapy is crucial (like cognitive behavioral disorder) & psychiatric medications might also be indicated. Get help now.
