yes, many people are depressed without knowing it. depression is different for everyone, and when some people are constantly told that self-diagnosis isn't diagnosis at all, we give up on the thought and allow out depression to deepen. not only that, but sometimes you can be practically clueless to symptoms and signs, and that's sometimes even worse.

Yes, sometimes you don't realize you're depressed because you feel more bored than sad and don't feel like doing anything. Sometimes it feels like a fact that it's hopeless or pointless rather than the feeling it really is.

You can surely be depressed and not know it. Depression can come over you like a tidal wave but it can also come in hardly noticeable.

Yes, it's common. It can be mistaken for feeling down, or "blue" when, in fact, it can be so much more. Learning about depression, and the symptoms can back it easier to understand your feelings

You might feel like it is just a normal feeling and you aren't used to the fact others don't feel the same.

Yes you can be depressed and not fully know that you are facing depression. Although what you may feel is that you are not your 'normal' self.

Being depressed exists in your knowledge of it. Your emotions are defined by YOU. If you think you're depressed, you are!

Yes the situation can happen. You can be sad from time to time or not feel like doing anything at all and just confuse the feeling with something else, like procrastination, having a bad day.

Can i be depressed and not know it? Ofcourse - becouse the sadness is something really normal and ussual, thats we can`t recognize her. How you will know something is not a normal, when that thing was with you your whole life.

Actually, yes. Many people feel depressed and don't realize it. It is usually the family member or friend that brings it to their attention.
