Depression Symptoms? (Answers: 10) (Comments: 0)

I was laid off work after 24 1/2 years this past January and I'm not having any luck finding another job. My wife seems to think I might be suffering from a mild form of depression. Can anyone tell me what symptoms I need to be looking for before I call a doctor. Money is tight right now and can't afford to spend money for just a visit without any proof of depression.

Depression symptoms? (Answers: 9) (Comments: 0)

Sorry to ask such a serious question, but I am a little too embarrased to take it to my Dr. I am a healthy 26 year old nurse. I believe I have been depressed since middle school - and have thought about suicide on and off since then (on & off being for brief periods every 2 years or so). When ever I feel so low, I am too depressed to talk to the Dr about it, and when I'm not I am too embarrased to talk about it. The reason I am questioning talking to my Dr about it today is that I am so tired. I just feel like no matter how much sleep I get, it's not enough. I have a history of migraines, but I feel like I am getting a headache every single day. My job is very fast paced, and these symptoms make me feel like I can't do my job. I also feel like I need to quit my job every 6 months for no reason - I really like my job, and don't know why I get such a strong urge to quit. I know there may be other answers for my symptoms, but does anyone else think could they mean depression?

My insurance does not cover the cost of counseling, so how can I get rid of the depression symptoms or diminish them when I am too tire to exercise? There is one person that I talk to on the phone every week who is the only person I found can make me feel better, but talking to her only once a week does not seem to be enough, and she is not a counselor, or doctor of any kind.
