Lately I haven't felt like myself. I always seem to be tired and I don't really want to be by my friends. I sometimes overeat and I don't keep up with my homework because I am just too tired. Could I be depressed?

Some of what you are saying could sound like depression, so it could be a possibility. Another possibility could be that you are just tired and not getting enough nutrients in what you are eating. These two things have a lot in common as far as signs.

A good balanced nutritional program is the first step for both. One's body needs the proper nutrients to maintain itself and lack of proper nutrition can cause depressive side effects.

If you have further questions and/or comments, please feel free to contact me at any time.

Blessigs in all that you do.
