Are you depressed?

A depressed person finds it difficult to perform even the most routine tasks such as getting dressed, brushing teeth, preparing breakfast and making routine decisns. E.g a depressed woman whose friend was late for an appointment became convinced that the friend no longer liked, and that in fact she was unlikable, so the thoughts of the depressed patient are ruled by negative views of the world- the cognitive triad of depression”
Depressed people exaggerate minor obstacles into impossible barriers, consider themselves stupid or hopelessly incompetent and see the future as only full of more painful failures.
