Depressed or not

    Hey guys

    Not sure what to say only, i am not sure if i am depressed or not. I have been feeling very bad lately. I have never felt like this before. When i wake up i just feel so so tired, then i get on the bus and i just feel like i wish it would keep on going with me on it. i start to feel angry when i think of things that i make up in my mind, I feel that i am worthless and no one give a s**t. I have a great G/F but i just cant say how i feel as i am to ashamed. i have gone totally shy and i was never like this, i used to blame it on drink and the likes but i haven't drank in so long. i start smelling bad smells and my girlfriend cant smell them. Have i lost the plot. Is it a bad patch or should i see someone. I am at me wits end.

    Thanks

    M

    Hope i didn't post in the wrong form

    Only your dr can say if you are or not so I suggest you go see them asap.

    I would get to a GP asap

    the fact that you have olfactory hallucination (smell bad smells) could be symptomatic of a brain tumor. You may need to go in for tests.

    This could also explain other symptoms described, Im sure you're fine, but that would be a worry sign for me

    Indeed, O.H. is something I've never heard assigned to depression. You'd really want to go see a doctor about all this.

    This is the bit I take issue with. For a start if doctors, even consultants with many many years of training and experience wouldn't even begin to make any sort of call with what the OP has posted, what hope anyone else? This is why medical advice is not allowed and this includes obviously includes any attempt at online diagnosis. Hell every time I've googled my symptoms when I've had man flu, it came back I had lesser spotted flesh eating nile fever.

    Thread closed. The advice of seeing your GP is still the best advice OP. It really is. It'll put your mind at rest and get you whatever help you need.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
