What is depression?
A mood disorder known as depression is
characterized by persistent feelings of sadness,
emptiness, and loss of joy. It's not like the
mood swings that everyone goes through on a
regular basis. Trusted Source depression can be
brought on by significant life events like the
death of a loved one or the loss of a job.
However, a person's negative emotions in response
to a difficult life event are not the same as
depression. Depression can cause feelings that
are intense, persistent, and out of proportion to
a person's circumstances, even when circumstances
change. It is a problem that will not go away.
Major depressive disorder is the most common type
of depression, but there are other types as well.
It has episodes that last at least two weeks and
cause symptoms. Trusted Source Depression can
last for months, years, or even a few weeks. It
is frequently a chronic illness that improves
briefly before returning.

Here and 7 signs that someone might be silently
depressed
1. Withdrawal from activities, work, or school
One of the most important symptoms of depression
is abstinence from activities. This occurs
because the disorder consumes the individual's
entire energy and time. Because the pain becomes
too great, depression makes it extremely
difficult to continue with daily activities other
than those that are absolutely necessary. Those
who suffer in silence may begin omitting a few
activities in the hope that no one will notice.
Many people who suffer don't want others to know
that they have a problem and don't want to admit
it. On the off chance that you notice that a
friend or family member is beginning to pass up
life, then this is an indication of quiet sadness.

2. Eating disorders
  • A skewed eating pattern is another common sign of
    depression. As a result of an increased or
    decreased appetite, it may manifest as a sudden
    change in weight. Therefore, do not hesitate to
    get in touch with them if you observe any kind of
    imbalance in their daily diet or overall
    lifestyle.

3. Faking Emotions
  • People who have suicidal and depressive thoughts
    frequently keep their condition under wraps. Some
    of them are too afraid to be called "crazy" or
    "weird," while others are embarrassed to express
    these more profound feelings.
  •  
  • As a result, they play it safe. To avoid painful
    conversations, they don masks and focus on making
    meaningless small talk to give the impression
    that they are happy.

4. They have become a workaholic
  • Overworking may not seem like a sign of
    depression, but some people use their jobs to
    hide their feelings. They see work as a way to
    get away from how they feel and get away from the
    pain their minds cause. If someone stays late at
    work most nights of the week, they might not just
    be a workaholic but also be silently depressed.
  • Final thoughts those who suffer from depression
    believe that it is a monster, so it is essential
    for them to seek treatment. Don't be afraid to
    lend a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on if
    you see any of the aforementioned symptoms in
    someone. We might just be able to end the stigma
    associated with depression and increase people's
    comfort and willingness to seek treatment if we
    all look out for one another.

5. A feeling of chronic exhaustion
  • A person who is depressed may also experience a
    persistent lack of energy. This feeling of
    fatigue will not go away by getting enough sleep
    or rest.
  •  
  • Sometimes the emotion is so strong that the
    person no longer has the strength to do the
    things they normally do. This makes it hard to do
    even the things they normally do.

6. Lack of energy
  • Given that this condition can cause a person to
    lose their mind, it should come as no surprise at
    all. This experience becomes a battle daily due
    to the daunting and persistent thoughts of
    hopelessness and despair, stress, a lack of
    appetite, and sleep deprivation.
  •  
  • Because there is no energy left in them, the
    person who is battling this dangerous illness may
    begin to isolate themselves from their friends
    and family after a while.

7. Alcohol or drug use
  • Alcohol or drugs may be used by some people with
    mood disorders to cope with feelings of sadness,
    loneliness, or hopelessness.
