Dead ends making you depressed? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

saddened

'depressed?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'dead ends making' is the wordplay.
'making' indicates anagramming the letters.
'dead'+'ends'='deadends'
'deadends' anagrammed gives 'SADDENED'.

'you' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for saddened that I've seen before include "unhappiness" , "Made sorrowful" , "Made unhappy or melancholy" , "Distressed" .)
