What are three signs of depression and suicide? so these are three symptoms that you can see in other people.
00:08
We'll start with depression.
00:10
So depression is a mental illness characterized by low mood.
00:20
So the patient will have changes in mood.
00:23
They might be consistently negative or they might be more irritable than usual.
00:31
There's also reduced activity.
00:33
They may become tired more easily.
00:39
They may lose interest in activities they would usually enjoy, because those activities just aren't as pleasurable as usual.
00:46
So they might lose interest in their hobbies.
00:51
They can also have changes to eating or sleeping.
01:04
So this can go either way.
01:05
They might sleep too much.
01:07
They might have trouble getting to sleep.
01:09
They might eat too much.
01:10
They might eat too little.
01:11
It really varies depending on the person.
01:14
So these are three big signs of depression.
01:16
A fourth one is kind of a negative sense of self.
01:20
So low self -esteem.
01:23
They'll be very critical of themselves, and at its worst, this can become delusional in nature.
01:30
They may earnestly believe that they are awful, but they don't deserve help, but they're a burden to everybody they love.
01:36
And, of course, this from the outside wouldn't be true, but for the patient, it's very real...
