Mostly a frequent, random sadness or irrituability, otherwise numbness to most good things. I'm either crying daily, or my feelings are on lockdown and I need to force them out to feel alive. Fatigue and overeating used to be more serious symptoms, but not so much anymore.
I've never experience severe depression where I couldn't get out of bed, couldn't shower (well, maybe I experienced that for a little while), couldn't leave the house. I usually find I need to get out one way or another, even if it's just to pick up some food (which I'm starting to think is just a weird security or comfort thing for me). It's more a walking-depression for me. I go through the day but I typically feel either numb or terrible, like I'm just existing, barely.
