Am I depressed?
I was recently dumped and have absolutely lost my appetite. I don't want to eat, move or do anything at all. Is this depression?

first off...and you're prob. tired of hearing this but i'm very sorry..he must not have been worth it because everything happens for a reason, even if it may not seem like it right now. i know that sounds like bull shit but i can honestly say from experience,its true..wheather its god or the universe or a higher being that none of us know about..whatever accually exists does things in our best interest. now, about the loss of appetitie...its very normal...believe me i have two other sisters and a brother,all of which are much older than me and if i hadn't had gotton to watch thier love so-called-trageties before i hit teen years im not sure i could have survived my love life. i get u though..when i found out who i thought was the love of my life had cheated on me i felt so numb..like i had absolutley no emotion left in my body. i felt like eating had become a chor..i just bsimply didn't want to do it anymore. and yes...it may feel like depression but its not. i've been through depression..its a whole lot worse and i know what you're thinking..how could anything be worse than this but there are things. you're suffering from the heart break blues basically and as shitty as it is to hear now..time heals everything..eventually your heart will mend and you'll be ok..i promise! you'll find someone thats accually worth your time,even if you thought this guy was the one and can't stand me talking about him this way. but i promise you..listen to some angry chick music and cry and let it out then decide to get up and move on..no matter how hard it is..you'll get through it..and im hear if ya need to talk..i hope i could help..please let me know!

Yeah you do sound like you are depressed. Its okay to feel upset about somebody you have lost.
The worst thing to do though is worry about it for too long.
By not eating i know this sounds a bit drastic but you could go into depression and continue not eating and develop anorexia or bullemia or something of that sort.
You don't want to trigger other more serious and possibly life-threatening issues because one person has let you go.
It is upsetting when somebody breaks up with you but what can you do i guess. It is their loss and to get them back you should prove to them you can continue with your life and live it well.
Don't let them bring you down..x

Umm. Yeah, you could be sad.
People tend to be after a break-up. o_O;
But you would know if you were actually DEPRESSED.
That's a strong word filled with stronger feelings than sadness. I honestly don't think you are if you're asking on an advice site
just dont cut yourself =)

Try to eat anyway. You're probably not depressed- just really sad and upset. There's a difference.
It's normal to be really upset and mope around after something like that happens.
I'm the same way after i get rejected. Exept I eat way more and i can't stop.
Try watching movies that are really, really funny. (try any of the austin powers ones especially the 2nd one or meet the fockers) That will get your mind off of your problem and you'll be laughing so you'll feel better. It really works!
Get together with a friend and do something fun.
Or just do something you enjoy. Get into that mode where you forget about other things.
Or you could just wait it out. Sooner or later you'll get tired of moping and you'll just get over it.
TIME HEALS EVERYTHING! :)
i hope i helped.

It could very well be a form of depression. You need to get out of your house and have fun. No matter how bad you don't feel up to it you should really try to. It will eventually pass, try not to get too upset over it. There are plenty more people out there!
Hope I helped!
