Checked or Unchecked?

So you think you have DEPRESSION?
Below are some of the common symptoms of depression that I took from the IMH website because I wanna see for myself if depression has hit on me.
So if you checked 5 or more of them, and you've been experiencing them for two weeks or longer, then congratulations. YOU ARE IN A STATE OF DEPRESSION! =)
1.Persistent sadness or feeling down or gloomy. (Checked)
2.A loss of interest in activities previously enjoyed, such as socializing with friends and family, most of the day, nearly every day. (only loss interest in socializing with family every day. Checked.)
3.Loss of appetite and loss of weight. (how I wish. Unchecked.)
4.Insomnia. For some people, on the contrary, they find that they are sleeping more than normal. (Unchecked)
5.Feeling restless and agitated more easily. (Checked)
6.Feeling tired and having little energy. (Checked)
7.Unable to concentrate and think clearly and thereby becoming indecisive. (Checked)
8.Feeling of worthlessness and quilt. (Checked)
9.Recurrent thoughts of death. (thought of it, but no courage. Checked.)
Oh great! I have 7 out of 9! I think they should add in number 10: Uncontrollable urge to cry. Then I will have 8 out of 10. Which is like the same, actually. HA!
Life's short. Thank god.
