Is there any way to separate a loss of interest in something as a symptom of depression versus just you changing as a person?

From my experience losing interest in something because I'm just changing feels more "natural" and easy, like I don't feel bothered to become disinterested. It's not painful or concerning, it's just like a snake shedding its skin I guess.
Losing interest because of depression feels more painful and like something's being taken away from me, like I'm actually losing something.

OK, yes, that makes a lot of sense to me. I guess Ill have to examine those things as they come up and see what the estrangement feels like
