am I depressed?
Lately, I feel like I don’t wanna see or meet any person I just wanna be with myself I feel like nobody understands me I feel like I don’t care about nobody..I don’t wanna answer any calls or messages from family or friends I didn’t wanna go out with my friends. I hate being with people. And there is one thing that I don’t feel comfortable with which is when I see people cry or feeling bad I don’t feel like I care..I don’t feel bad for them..unlike how I used to be. But I’m working on a lot of things that I love to do I am living normal I don’t feel like I’m having depression..if you have any advice I’ll appreciate it

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you've been feeling so down recently. I totally get how, when you feel drained and exhausted from life, you don't have the energy to interact with other people sometimes. Please, don't be so hard on yourself. It doesn't make you a bad person at all if you don't have the emotional capacity to give support to others right now. Since you're going through a difficult time yourself, it's normal to feel this way. It's important to prioritize your mental state and focus on taking care of yourself when you're feeling down.
I'm glad that you have projects you're working on that make you happy -- it's good to be productive and have healthy coping activities! I'm not a health care professional so I can't tell you whether you have depression or not, but if you ever need to talk I can be here to support you.
Hope this helped and take care!

Hi, sorry to hear that you are feeling very sad. I understand don't blame yourself!
When our mind and body are worn out, we don't feel like doing anything or don't take care about anything. It is not your fault that you are feeling so down these days. It cannot define who you really are. You're good person with good heart. Everyone has tough times in life and since you're going through this, you know you can always focus on other things later. But your mental, emotional and physical health is most important than others. Your well-being and self care are main priorities right now.
As you are saying that you are working on different projects and you like to do so. This can be a good way to keep your mind healthy and not focus on other things and worry about it . This will boost your productivity level and help you deal with your situation. I'm glad you do have something that's going to help you in this situation.
I am not sure about whether you are experiencing depression or not. I am just an active listener and I can only listen and support you. If you ever need to talk to someone feel free to come here on 7 cups, I'm always here. Hope this helped you. Take good care of your mental and emotional health!!
