Low mood? Desperate? Depressed? Can't get out of bed? Feeling life is on top of you?

Some signs and symptoms of depression and low mood include:

* Dread in facing the world

* Self-harm

* 'Dark' thoughts (e.g. ending your life, thoughts of death, not wanting to exist anymore, harming yourself etc.)

* No energy or feeling tired or lethargic all the time

Remember, some people will have all of these symptoms, some people with have some and some will have other symptoms that might not be on this list. We are all different.
