Resilient people have 3 things in common. They are hopeful about the future, good coping skills, and not taking all the blame for the hard times. Obviously, you must have good coping skills, have some enjoyment in every day, and you are hopeful about the future.
Depression has 3 causes negative self-cognition, childhood trauma, and can be familial or genetic.
Some symptoms are overwhelming sadness, hopelessness, lack of joy in activities that are usually enjoyable, significant weight gain or loss, sleeping problems, and irritability. (Possible suicidal ideation)
