This random depression symptom sucks. Just got promoted, have a girlfriend I really like, am doing generally well in life and I’m feeling extremely sad/dark. Throttling between high-energy and optimism to depression is exhausting

I'm sorry you're going through this. It sounds like you could be bipolar. A combination of drugs really helps my family members stay out of deep depression.

It happens with everyone…I feel

This sounds more like bipolar than depression, but I also have this occur where I am okay and then not.

Completely relate to this my friend. It can happen at times. Things will look better, and keep positive!

I'm an RN of 7 years, experience as a coordinator, on committees and do all the things. But now I just don't want to go to work anymore. I have anxiety every morning over nothing, just having to go perform my job. I could do my job in my sleep so I'm just lost and confused. My body is clearly sending me messages to leave. But where do I go? I think I need to step out of patient care.

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big.

My psychiatrist today revealed to me that I may have ADHD, still a hypothesis that he is still exploring but from my personal experiences and discussions with therapist, it seems likely.

One example of personal experience is my ongoing prep for case studies as I'm interviewing with a number of firms.
