Lack of motivation to do even the most basic things.
The world starts seeming like a surreal, malevolent place.
Isolating myself to the point of painful loneliness.
Not tending to relationships or having depressive symptoms cause problems, thus increasing my isolation.
Hopelessness.
Watching a great deal of time go by that I can't get back.
Feeling of just existing and not really living.
My mind is sludgy and I can't think well.
Feeling like a klutz at communicating.
Sense of humor goes.
Sleep is hard to come by and lack of it adds to my fatigue and slowed thinking.
Can't enjoy things I love.
Unrealistic guilt and self-flagellation.
Realistic guilt at not getting things done, but still putting them off.
Feeling/being irritable.
Frustration with all of the above and at not being able to make the depression go away.
