What Are The Symptom Of Depression?

I was wondering if I am suffering from depression. I ve lost about 15 pounds within the last 2 months. Feeling depressed. Can only sleep for 4-5 hours at night. I ve had a couple events that I think is causing it. One is relationship related where the woman I love decided we should start dating other people. I found that she s engaged to someone else. I ve known her for 8-9 years. I feel heart broken. The other event is my job situation that is unstable. I ve been feeling miserable about my job for quite sometime. I ve finally decided to start looking for a new job a couple weeks ago. Then this week they laid off our CFO. I think depression is causing my problems. What do you think?

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Yes, as per the history given by you, two major events have happened; your broken relationship with your girlfriend, and the insecure job situation. Both can lead to anxiety and depression. Insomnia can be a result of both anxiety and depression. It would be good if you could take the advise of a Psychiatrist and he could manage your problems well.
