Depressed or Blue how can you tell the difference?
What is the difference between feeling blue or depressed? I am not a pyschologist but from own experiences I can tell the difference. When feeling blue it just means that there is something going on in your life that doesnt measure up to what your goals have been. You have not met up with the time frame, it seems life has taken another path that you had not planned for, and at times it is the issues the small details in your life that you yet have not focused on. When feeling depressed it feels more intensed, life is hopeless..you no longer want to continue how things are. It really affects you chemically at times (hormones are a great part of it) and feels like it plays with you mind. At times it feels like 2 voices in your head, one telling you all the great things in life (I call these my Angels) and the other voice telling me I am a loser, nothing I do is right, I deserve not to be here (I call these my demons mean mean demons).
