IF a decisive person becomes indecisive suddenly -is it sign of something to do with anxiety and depression or is it mood problem/personality change?

I know many friends ,relatives who are indecisive or take time and slow by default ,but someone who is firm and decisive ,if overnight flips what does it mean ?

If you are normally a take charge type person and all of a sudden you become indecisive, it could very well be the depression undermining your self esteem. Makes sense...

I guess I would have to think about this one for a minute.

it is a very circumstantial process you are talking about. i have found it out this last week with my great mate / neighbour passing. things like this can bring about a rapid change. just my thoughts.

Cilly,

I could just mean that the situation is sending the person a red flag and they do not feel comfortable with it.

We all change behaviors once and awhile, lack of sleep, stress, worry hunger all could cause such things.

To jump right to a mental illness to not sensible.

Peace
