Depression has varied clinical presentation. The symptoms you have mentioned can occur in depression, if they are quite frequent. A deep routed conflict or stressful life events can cause these symptoms. Personality disorders can also have similar presentations.
A detailed evaluation is needed before reaching to a conclusion.
Kindly get back to me with more details including .. Age of onset, freqency of symptoms, associated symptoms, comorbid substance use etc.
