You may be experiencing some mild but persistent signs of depression. These could show up as low motivation, tiredness, irritability, or disinterest in things you once enjoyed.
At this stage, depression may not feel overwhelming—but it can still weigh on your daily life. If these symptoms continue, they can grow into something harder to manage. You’re catching it early, and that’s a powerful thing.
What to Look For:
Feeling unmotivated or disconnected
Trouble concentrating or sleeping well
Losing interest in hobbies or people
Internal sense of “grayness” or going through the motions
What You Can Do:
Try low-pressure routines like walking, journaling, or breathing exercises
Reach out to someone you trust—talking helps even if you're unsure what to say
Consider speaking to a counselor if symptoms last longer than 2–3 weeks
