What are the symptoms of a major depression?
People with major depression no longer enjoy life. They feel very sad and lose interest in just about everything, including their families. Their self-esteem plummets. They may have difficulties eating or sleeping. They may lose interest in sex. They may lack energy and become unable to concentrate. They may not be able to get out of bed. In severe cases, many women may have suicidal thoughts. These can take a passive form of wishing they would die as well as an active form of considering how to kill themselves.
