Depression 6 months after sleeve?

Has anyone had issues with depression after the sleeve? I had been feeling pretty good but the last week or so have had such sadness and feel very overwhelmed. I haven't had anything (that I can think of) happen that would put me in this state of mind. Not sure what is going on. I am proud of my weight loss so far. 90 lbs!! But this is for the birds....

This is a big change in life, I suffer from depression before the sleeve, it is one of the worst things ever, one thing I can maybe advise is go out!!!! Spend time with a good friend and try to get your mind back on track, fresh air can really help, good luck

I'm 3months out and I have recently been feeling blue for no reason. Everything is great in my life and yet lately any little thing can make me feel sad. I thought that only happened in the first or second month. I just try to put myself in a happy mood. I try not to dwell on sad things. I have to say also that it takes very little for me to cry lately and I'm not normally a crier. I just figure my body is hormonally challenged for probably this first year or til I hit goal and my hormones calm down.

Thanks for the replies. It probably is hormonal and with the changes our bodies have gone thru. I just thought I wouldn't be depressed this far out. Especially with feeling better about myself since the weight loss. I know I will get past it. Hopefully just a phase....
