Yes, I can relate. I seem to slip into faulting everyone and everything around me of how bad it is. Obscessing about my physical health, trying to convince myself that I have virus, anemia etc. causing exhaust and sick feeling. I've learned to identify these thoughts at some threshold and then I come to psychcentral for depression test to see if I qualify. Then I can feed relieved that it's the same old depression I have learned to cope with, not a dramatic disease I've had fantasies having.
Keep tracking your moods, acknowledgment helps. Hugs!
