How to diagnose? |

An unemployed colleague of mine from B-school recently disclosed to me that he is has been diagnosed with a depressive disorder and is currently seeing a psychiatrist. He then warned me as well to become self-aware of a potential depressive disorder.
Neither of us have found gainful employment the past couple of years since we graduated. Both of us were highly successful prior to interrupting our careers and returning to school.
I feel depressed and often distracted but do not know to what degree. However, I feel that I could bounce back when I find a decent position / suitable career . . . . if someone would only hire me. Since I am not very adept at self-diagnosis, I thought I might pose this one to the community. Are any of you going through the same situation? What are you doing about it?
