What would be the signs
Are you depressed, op?
I do.
Symptoms are different for everybody though so it wouldn't be a wise idea to use another persons experience with it and identify it with your own. Depression is a thing that lingers for months and years. There's a difference between feeling down for a moment or because you lost your job and being depressed
For me,
-constant negativity or self doubt (always looking for the bad or thinking about the worst)
-body aches for no physical reason
-irritation or annoyance for no reason
-lack of excitement constantly
-loss of interest to do anything or not interested in doing things that Im passionate about
-feeling empty constantly like feeling like life is meaningless or there's no reason to live
-feeling emotionally numb
-feeling sad constantly
-feeling angry constantly
-feeling exhausted or tired, constant need to sleep
-slow and delayed motor movement like moving in slow motion without realizing it
-the need for constant isolation
-wanting to cry or break down where my eyes get watery or I can feel it from within but being unable to
I have anxiety too so that doesn't help.

For me,
-constant negativity or self doubt (always looking for the bad or thinking about the worst.) This could be seen as complaining. I've had family members and people ask me is there anything I like or say I'm too negative

-irritation or annoyance for no reason
-lack of excitement constantly
-loss of interest to do anything or not interested in doing things that Im passionate about

I have anxiety too so that doesn't help. I don't go through cry spells and I haven't acted out on any suicidal ideations or have them regularly. I managed to fight those thoughts though I'll admit it lingers. It's hell basically and the best way I manage is usually by sleeping and self isolation. My shyt triggers randomly but I do a good job of hiding it.
You talking about clinically depressed or just unhappy with life?
If it's the former, I probably know one or two. If it's the latter, shyt half the people I know are unhappy with life.
Hiding it is common in our communities. Until it overwhelms you to the point you fukkin explode. Hope you're able to talk to somebody about it before it gets to that point, breh.

that or to fall asleep in my car with the windows up and the engine on. Knowing that, I try to use restraint and preventive measures since the thoughts and feelings are there though not intense.
