In past episodes of severe depression, I've also noticed increased skin sensitivity and a "burning" skin feeling. Another sure physical sign of serious depression for me is change in taste perception -- things that I normally like taste awful, and I can only eat very bland foods (usually I like strong flavors).
Depression definitely can have major physical manifestations -- after all, your nervous system is seriously out of whack when you're depressed, and this can have all sorts of unusual effects.
