What am I really diagnosed with (Major Depressive Disorder)

Btlaxe,
 
MDD is also known as Major Depressive Disorder.  

It often occurs after a negative life event. However, unlike “sadness” or “disappointment” (normal reactions to negative life events) MDD is characterized by very strong negative feelings that last for a long time. Because these feelings are too strong and last for too long they don’t help or motivate people to find out what’s wrong, cope with the problem, make decisions – and then get on with life. Instead, these strong negative feelings interfere with our ability to cope and make decisions.

 

Unlike being sad or disappointed MDD is a medical illness that’s characterized by a number of physical, emotional, and cognitive (thinking) symptoms like being persistantly sad or anxious, irritable or angry, feelings of hopelessness, changes in appetite, sleep problems, negative thoughts or difficulties concentrating.

I am having a heck of a time understanding my dignosis!  Does anyone really know what MDD is?  All I know is I feel like I am utterly crazy and sad!
