Hello Friend, Good that you are seeking a help here. Yes, you are right. Sleep disorder, weight gain, dullness, lack of interest are clearly some of the symptoms of depression.
Just observe and analyze what has changed recently in your lifestyle, environment, relationship etc to understand more about such symptoms in details and figure out the root cause.
May be you need to take a guidance of any psychology counselor to first assess your current condition in detail to do this excersise. Online will be more convenient and easy to approach and follow up.
Be positive. It's a curable problem with certain self therapies, lifestyle changes, counseling sessions or excersise.
Call me directly or online for further evaluation and recommendation that you can follow practically to overcome this problem.

Feeling low, having crying spells, sleep and appetite disturbances, and difficulty in concentration and attention are some of the signs of Depression. Consult a Psychiatrist for a detailed assessment. It is likely with medication and counseling the symptoms will improve. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless consult a Psychiatrist immediately.
