One should be able to identify basic symptoms, so that health issues may easily be explained to a doctor for proper treatment. A patient of depression usually has symptoms like persistent sadness, loss of interest, and low energy levels.

While anxiety has symptoms like excessive fear, worry or panic. usually patients with anxiety have sleep issues i.e they may have problem in sleep onset, or intermittent insomnia. Moreover they may experience excessive dreaming.

A patient with depression actually lacks the normal perception of pleasure, and has a feeling of ever sadness, that spoils the overall capabilities. In this way a person that was once going well in every field of life, starts to face failures.
