I'm not sure if I'm depressed or not. I have been able to be happy and actually feel lately but for the past week I have been unable to feel. I am familiar with being numb but am unsure as to what exactly i am feeling. I have been isolating myself from friends. I feel nothing but am overwhelmed somehow.

**I have been on SSRI's for about 9 months.

Advice?

Hi Amelia Rose.

There are accurate online questionares from reputable sites which can then send results to your gp. I think beyond blue has one. Cheers lynne

Hi there,

Perhaps go and see your GP and have a discussion.

I can totally relate to the numb feeling and just not feeling anything. I often feel emotionless.

get to the doctor and see how u go

I get that 'numb' feeling quite a lot. I get into a state where I feel slow both mentally and physically and have no motivation to do anything except distract myself from that feeling with TV, games, etc.
