Multiple, vague somatic complaints are highly predictive of depression. Some typical presenting complaints are:

• "tired all the time "
• malaise; “the blahs”
• sleep problems (too much or too little)
• vague abdominal or joint pain
• “stressed out”
• headaches
• sexual dysfunction or loss of libido
• apathy
• GI complaints (constipation, diarrhea etc.)
• chronic pain (e.g., backache)
