#1
- Not being very hungry, ever.
- Spacing out excessively for no reason at all/brain-fog.
- Random stomach aches...usually caused by anxiety.
- Fidgeting ALL the time or destructively fidgeting (ripping thread off a shirt, tearing up paper, accidently crushing something in your fist, etc.)
- Getting the "zoomies" like a dog would, but not for happy reasons. Just feeling the need to physically burn off negative energy.

Being the therapist of the friend group. I am the therapist, but idk I feel like I struggle more than my friends. I do this because I care, and I feel useless so I hope I at least make some change to a person's life. The therapist is often ignored, so don't forget to always reach out to your friends!
I also think you can learn a lot about a person based on their music taste- mainly the lyrics.

For depression, a sudden improvement in mood, which is usually a bad sign that the person might be contemplating unaliving themselves.

Inability to deal with rejection. No, I don’t mean ‘refuses to accept that they aren’t the best at everything’. I mean ‘the inability to regulate emotions caused by rejection’. I mean ‘every small rejection is disproportionately upsetting’.

-Not expressing interest in the things they used to.
-Withdrawal from friends and family.
-Unusual changes in mood i.e. someone usually quiet is suddenly talkative and vice versa.
-Generally any moderate to severe and perceived as a negative* change in someone's behaviour is worth looking into.
*Note: To clarify, there's nothing wrong with being quiet (or talkative!) or withdrawn but a sudden change to different behaviour can be a sign of an issue.
