What Are Symptoms Of Depression?

Hello. In the past seven years I lost development (aftermath of the housing bubble), my mother in Ukraine developed ALS, and I was flying back and forth every two weeks or more often for her (i am an only child), then, after she passed in my arms, I was flying for my dad, until he died. Dad died from carbon monoxide poisoning, because neighbors in adjacent condo committed suicide, ventilation opening is connected, and they were not discovered for 5 days, two days after dad died from the fumes. Then 6 months later my 14 y.o daughter developed anorexia, 6 months into anorexia battle my ex husband filed contested diverse, which was going for almost 2 years, ugly, full of lies, and at $600 per hour attorney rate. After divorce was over I have met someone and fell in love. We parted 14 months later, I asked for it. He was serial online dater, and I knew. Day after that my daughter was admitted to the hospital with depression and suicidal thoughts. Then PHP, then residential treatment at eating recovery center in Denver. Flying there every week from Chicago for three months. 6 months were taken by hospitals, psychiatrists, psychologists. no child support, work, remodeling house. Also, all my assets were in Ukraine. Because of the revolution and war, I lost it all. Have house that is nearly paid off. Working, and taking GRE test prep, planning to go to second grad school.. Work out regularly, 5 9 , 129 lbs. Depressed. Not on medication. Never took one, even sleeping pill. Becoming more and more introverted. Have hard time to function. Insecure. I am wondering if it is true depression or and adjustment disorder. However, I have these stressful events going on for 7 years. l am wondering if it turned into real depression.
