During my last session T and started to discuss signs that I was experiencing true medical depression vs. a situational depression. I am suppose to be making a list of things that I noticed recently before I admitted I was depressed and how bad it was. T knew I was a having a very difficult time but didn't know how bad until I finally decided to change my meds with Pdoc and rated my mood on a scale of 1-10 and then I told T.

Knowing the difference is very difficult for me as there is so much in my life that could cause situational depression... T said if it lasts longer than 2 weeks then we need to really look at depression. It had been almost 2 YEARS for me...it just got progressively worse to the point that I was completely numb.

So what are you clues that you are depressed?
