Hi, Thanks for writing in, welcome to the forum. These could potentially be signs of depression. But it is also possible that there are other explanations to it. Depression can be of many different types, sometimes obvious, sometimes disguised. Sometimes it may be in response to life situations and sometimes just out of the blue. Sometimes, what appears to be depression can be a manifestation of medical conditions of varied causation such hormonal disturbances, anemia, nutritional deficiencies and many more. Many a time, such a state can be result of the adverse effects of medicines taken for some other purposes like tuberculosis. So with the limited information about you available to me, I can certainly say that a possibility of depression exists and needs to be evaluated, but I cannot confirm the same without evaluating. I hope that answers your question. Do let me know if you need additional help. Take care!
