mental health/is this depression or not idk 

@Firstaide I've had days (okay spans of weeks) like that and I had no trouble calling it depression. I think the qualifier I heard was if it lasted for a long period of time or not and/or how often it happened. Like an office worker getting a little malaise in the last work hour before the weekend probably isn't a serious mental health concern.
