Losing interest in activities once had before.

I generally stopped bodybuilding for many months now, but I am unsure that I am actually depressed because subconsciously my brain might be making a very good decision, usually we give up on things because it's not worth doing anymore, or we are genuinely depressed, but I can't be sure if I am depressed.

In bodybuilding you have to eat a lot to gain muscle, but I've reached a point where I just can't be asked with it all any more, it costs too much money for food and it has made me speculate whether I am depressed, I have not had any increase in money for a while now, so I just don't want to eat that much, I am of course still eating though.

I feel as if I may have become depressed because I have stopped bodybuilding, it bugs me that I've stopped because I genuinely want to get back into it again but can't, I lift weights and get fed up half way through my workout, I get fed up with not getting any bigger. Hence why I'm not eating as much.

But then again, people with depression have sleeping problems, I admit this is true for me, I haven't been able to get to sleep normally for a while now, my sleeping patterns have become hell, I want to be able to get out of bed early and move but can't, and if I wake up too early I feel on edge. In the past I used to be able to wake up at 6AM for work, but that slowly went downhill, I used to sleep at 2-3AM before falling asleep, I eventually got sacked. So again, it put me down more and lost hope, my general worry is the lack of money though.

Even riding my bike I used to like to ride fast, but now I just can't be asked with it, but I am unsure if I have subconscious good reasons not to, or that I am genuinely depressed, I haven't given up on web development or looking for my next job though, these days I feel a constant feeling of being fed up that despite how much I try nothing changes.

We can't really diagnose here, but you could be.

I don't have an official Dx, yet believe I'm depressed. There seem to be less and less I feel like doing.

It's all very intertwined, I think. Depression, anxiety, personal problems. Sometimes it's a Chicken or Egg? thing, it seems to me.
