Signs of depression: Depression is an issue that was not much discussed in our country until recently, as mental health was not considered as important as physical health. However, with changing times, the importance of mental health is being understood by people. It is necessary for one to keep depression at bay if they want to stay mentally healthy. However, identifying depression could be difficult. We've thought of a few points that can help you understand if any of your loved ones is suffering from depression. So let's look into these symptoms:

Constantly swollen eyes:

Frequent crying and irregular sleep cycle may cause eyes to swell up. Both these problems are signs of depression. If your friend has swollen eyes every day, you should talk to him as he may be suffering from depression.

Weight Loss:

Weight loss without any specific reason may also be a symptom of depression. If a person, who is not dieting, working out or suffering from a disease, loses weight rapidly then he may be suffering from depression.

Losing interest in Sex:

A person suffering from depression may also lose interest in sex. This contributes to a deteriorating relationship between the depressed person and their partner. So, if you have a friend or loved one who no longer likes to get intimate with their partner, they may be suffering from depression.

Being Self-Involved:
