For some reason I decided to google something and well apparently it is actually a thing that I have:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_depressive_disorder
A person having a major depressive episode usually exhibits a very low mood, which pervades all aspects of life, and an inability to experience pleasure in activities that were formerly enjoyed. Depressed people may be preoccupied with, or ruminate over, thoughts and feelings of worthlessness, inappropriate guilt or regret, helplessness, hopelessness, and self-hatred.
Other symptoms of depression include poor concentration and memory (especially in those with melancholic or psychotic features), withdrawal from social situations and activities, reduced sex drive, [and thoughts of death or suicide.]Insomnia is common among the depressed. [In the typical pattern, a person wakes very early and cannot get back to sleep. Insomnia affects at least 80% of depressed people.] Hypersomnia, or oversleeping, can also happen.
A depressed person may report multiple physical symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, or digestive problems
Appetite often decreases, with resulting weight loss, [although increased appetite and weight gain occasionally occur.]
51% of those with major depression also suffer from lifetime anxiety. Anxiety symptoms can have a major impact on the course of a depressive illness.
The mention of suicide on multiple occassions in that article makes me a bit worried, but hey, look at all these cool people who have the same thing:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_with_major_depressive_disorder
Woody Allen, Christian Bale, Joe Budden, Jim Carrey, Louis C.K., Charles Dickens, Charlie Kaufman, Michelangelo, Isaac Newton, Friedrich Nietzsche, Tyler The Creator, Brad Pitt, Edgar Allan Poe, J.D. Salinger, Leo Tolstoi, Vincent Van Gogh.
Man am I lucky or what to be as cool as these guys.
