Depends on how long it's been going on and what's going on in your life. If you are typically happy and have a positive outlook on life in general, but are going thru a hard time because of some specific life circumstance, then it's likely not clinical depression and it will pass when your situation improves. If you are depressed constantly for no apparent reason, and your daily life is being impacted, then you really should go see a doctor. There's a myriad of possible causes for depression, both emotional and physical. It could be hormonal, a lack of certain vitamins in your diet, lack of sleep, a thyroid disorder, etc. etc. etc. Only a medical professional can help you determine the best course of action if this doesn't go away.

And...of course...you should pray to your heavenly Father for help, guidance and wisdom.

Yes, something is wrong - you have depression. If you cannot think of a reason (recent death in family, etc.) for crying every couple of days or if you have ever had even a passing suicidal thought, you need to get help. Immediately. Depression can be very serious and lead to physical health problems. Please get help. You can start by talking to your doctor if you don't know where else to go. Most phone books have help lines listed on the first few pages.

You already know that something is wrong. You are depressed. Please talk to your doctor. There are medications that can help. Try to get a referral to a therapist. Talking about what you're feeling helps. Good luck
