Depression Help - Recognizing a Symptom of Depression

Recognizing a Symptom of Depression

Apathy is a symptom of depression characterized by the joyless mental state of routine and disinterest in the areas of your life which you once found exciting, or at least interesting.

In acute depression, you will find that you are able to attend your usual functions, such as going to your kids little league games or even getting up to go to work, but you can't seem to get excited about anything.

You can't explain to your spouse, you just don't feel right. Your appetite may decrease (or increase,) you may begin to drink more often, or find that you can not sleep.

The Depression Diet: Fight Depression Through Eating Right!

The depression diet does not include chocolate.

Women will tell you that chocolate is the cure for depression diets. While eating chocolate will increase your sense of well being for a little while, the sugar crash, when it hits, is often more of a downer than the initial high was to begin with.

The depressed diet includes caffeine, processed sugars, deficiencies in vitamin B, and allergies to certain types of foods. Refined sugars and the treats from the snack machine can aggravate an already depressed system.
