Unsure depression

I’m not getting out of bed. I’m sleeping 10-14 hours at night. It’s increasing. I have a history of clinical depression from brain trauma. I don’t know if this is grief as it’s been less than two weeks since my dad died or a CD episode. For those who don’t have CD there’s no sadness. It’s a physical disease. The sleeping thing is a ‘tell’ normally for me. No other symptoms have shown up yet probably because I’m asleep.

Has anyone else ever had this issue?

Hi @Doaty,

Yes, it is very early days but just to be sure, have a word with your Doctor. Always better to check these things out.

Thanks Chloe. I have an appointment that was already scheduled next month. I wasn’t sure if I should make it sooner. I’ll call the nurse.

My nurse moved my appointment up. She said to sleep. It’s okay. She told me to focus on showers and eating. Thanks Chloe. X
