Sign of Depression #5: Loss of Interest
Loss of interest, or anhedonia, is a major sign of depression. Depressed people lose their interest in previous enjoyable activities. They lose interest not only for hobbies or work, but they lose interest in family and friends too. A loss of interest in food and a loss of interest even for sex are common in a depressed person.
If a person loved to go fishing for example, but suddenly is not interested into fishing anymore, or if a person loved to hang out with friends on weekends, but suddenly prefers to stay at home alone, then these are warning signs of depression.
