I finished university last year and started work right away. I hated my job and the company I worked for, so I left after only 6 months in order to pursue something better, but turned out I had the lowest level of motivation to do that!! I have been unemployed for 4 months now, simply because I've sent out a total of 6 resumes during the whole 4 months!! (and been to one interview) I don't know what's wrong with me!! I still very much want a job, and it's not like I have money!! My credit cards are maxed out!! But for some reason I don't seem to panic or get depressed!! I somehow lack the tiniest amount of motivation!! ... Do you think I'm actually depressed and don't know it??

When you loose interest in things going on around you, it very well may be depression. The best thing for you is to get up each day, don't stay in bed. Get dressed and go out . Even if its just to the mall. I think you are concerened about your credit cards being maxed out and don't realize it. You need help in getting them put together in one lump sum and getting it paid off, I think then you will start to feel better. If u can help in any way please feel free to chat with me. I have walked in your shoes.

I have been suffering from post partum depression for the past one year when I gave birth to a baby boy. I couldn't stop thinking about how my husband loves him more than me and how things might be better if he wasn't born at all. Thus, I stayed away from him because I knew that I might do something I will regret for the rest of my life.
Almost instantly I went to a therapist and convince them that I need help. Among other things, I've tried herbal supplements and other book to treat depression but nothing works like the Depression Free Method. So now I'm proud to say I'm one of the happiest mother in the world. My husband loves us both very much and I thank the Lord for the blessing he gave us.
Depression Free Method?

Depression can rob you of motivation. I've had periods where I couldn't get out of bed.
Mild depression, or dysthymia, isn't "mild" to those who suffer from it. Between 3 and 12% of the people who suffer from it end up as suicides.
The author of the article below describes it as "mental water torture".

being withdrawn, sleeping more than usual, etc.. I know what you are going through, I have been at a job that I hated so much that it really took a toll on me until I finally left it. Just remember your accomplishments and that not every job is like that, it is only a matter of finding the right one. Things will get better.

I would make an appointment with your doctor. You could have depression. Lack of interest in normal activities is a sign. Do you even want to work?

You sound depressed, that feeling of not feeling and not dealing has to do with depression. Take the quiz at the link below and I wish you the best in life.
