You're probably clearly depressed if you are lethargic, losing interest in things that normally interest you, withdrawing from others, having trouble getting out of bed in the morning, have a feeling of impending, and unavoidable doom that clouds your thoughts, among others.
But then there is also anxiety, which has its own host of physical and mental symptoms: a feeling of unreality or disconnection to your body, and physical manifestations of panic (heart palpitations, excess sweating, physical tremors, etc. Once my heart was palpitating so quickly I thought I was going into cardiac fibrillation and was about to call 911.), among others.
They're two different things, though they frequently accompany each other.
