Is it normal to suddenly feel depressed?

Today, I barely had enough motivation to write this. For almost the whole day, I was having a normal day, until just a few minutes ago. I was getting food from chick-fill-a, when on the drive back, I suddenly had no motivation whatsoever. I didn't feel hungry, and ended up only eating half of my sandwich. I cried, even though I don't know why, I lied on my bed for a while, and have just been feeling plain old crummy. Did I do something to trigger this? Am I doing something wrong? My life has been difficult for me recently, but not for at least a week or two. I don't have diagnosed depression, but I feel like it sometimes, but this is as far as it's gone. I have considered a world without me. What's wrong with me?

    I have depression and sometimes, I'll get overly sad for almost no reason at all and it can get annoying and a little dangerous (I'm not explaining that part yikes). If this happens, try to distract yourself with just about anything. Write a poem, listen to music, go for a walk, treat yourself with some frozen yogurt, do anything to keep yourself distracted, but positive.

    I think you might want to see a counselor if these low feelings are effecting your life

    Everyone feels down sometimes. Sometimes things just finally hit you after a delay, usually when it's safe to repair. Sometimes you didn't get as much rest or water as you need and your body switches to conservation mode. Give it about a week, get rest, practice body awareness (Am i thirsty? Am i eating right? Things a good mom would ask you.) and if you still feel this way get to a doctor to check you out. You're part of the world and the world is part of you.
