Body Pain as a Physical Symptom of Depression
Body pain from exertion is fairly easy to identify. It is different than a physical symptom of depression.
If you work at a computer or desk all day and come home with a sore neck, it is from the exertion of having your body in the same position all day long.
The most common physical complaint from people suffering from chronic depression is also chronic pain, the unending pain that seems to follow you everywhere, and puts a wedge between you and having fun.

Depression medications, called anti depressants, are divided into three basic categories. The MAOI's, or monoamine oxidase inhibitors, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, (SSRI's) and tricyclics, or TCA's.
The inhibition of the enzyme allows for more of the good neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and norepinephrine to reach the brain.
Some people will have to take depression medication for life, while others need only take it until the neurotransmitters in the brain rebuild themselves. The body and brain are amazing.

One manic depression symptom is evidenced by the inability to sleep. Another is that you begin to notice that you can become irritable almost without provocation, and you don't think anyone is listening to your great, if not somewhat far fetched, ideas.
During a manic phase, which can last weeks and even years, you are highly functioning in your job, especially if you are in the position to delegate.
