Emotional symptoms of depression include: loss of interest or no longer finding pleasure in activities or hobbies, persistent feelings of sadness, anxiety, or emptiness, feeling hopeless or pessimistic ,anger, irritability, or restlessness, feeling guilty or experiencing feelings of worthlessness or helplessness, thoughts of death or suicide or suicide attempts.

Anxiety

Anxiety, or fear and worry, can happen to anyone from time to time, too. It’s not unusual to experience anxiety before a big event or important decision.

But, chronic anxiety can be debilitating and lead to irrational thoughts and fears that interfere with your daily life.

Physical symptoms of anxiety: feeling fatigued easily, difficulty concentrating or recalling muscle tension, racing heart, grinding teeth, sleep difficulties, including problems falling asleep and restless, unsatisfying sleep
