Eval: You might consider an evaluation with either a doctoral level clinical psychologist or a psychiatrist. He or she will be able to determine if your symptoms meet clinical criteria for a major depressive episode. A treamtent plan can be made based on that. Take care. I hope you are feeling better soon.

Treatment: It's best to receive treatment for depression early to feel better and prevent recurrent depression. And depression is effectively treated with medication and therapy. Best to see a psychiatrist and psychotherapist experienced in treating depression.
