Mental health is an extremely important subject that is finally being addressed openly. Everybody can identify with the feeling depressed; experiences and physical wellbeing can lead to us feeling sad, hopeless and run down. These feelings can affect our behaviour and relationships, and it is very important to identify when those bouts of low mood have become more frequent and that you may, in fact be suffering from clinical depression. Here we list 17 signs that may indicate it is time to talk to a loved one or professional. Do not struggle alone!
1. You Don’t Enjoy the Things You Used T0

Have you noticed that activities you used to love and enjoy no longer lift your mood? If your enthusiasm has waned, especially for something you used to love then take some time to think about why this might be. Perhaps you are run down, or are too busy to enjoy an activity, if so, consider scaling back so that you still have time for yourself. Making time for things you love is essential for good mental health. If you have no motivation at all for these, consider talking to a friend about it.
