talking to imaginary friends & people I met over the net
listening to new kinds of music I'v never heard before...etc etc

Based god stops me from getting angry.
Instead I'm making bullies mad.

I refuse to believe so many of you actually suffer from depression. Feeling down and teenage angst, sure, but actual depression in on a whole other level.

Yeah, I have never went through actual depression but I do have very bad anxiety. And there has been times that I've been really down. But actual depression, no.

There is a difference between depression as a mood and MDD (major depressive disorder), which is a mental disorder.

[mdemaz]

Or bipolar.

[mcZu]

Or a lot of other mental disorders which feautre depression as symptom, indeed.

[mdemaz]

Psychotic episodes or mania for example.

I guess, it just bothers me that the word depression gets thrown around so freely. Nowadays people say they are depressed when they feel a little down, it's like saying you have pneumonia when all you have is a little cold.

And there could be people here who actually have MDD, but not that many. However Zu, what you said is 100% right and I should of said that instead of what I said.

^Agreed, people are quick to say they're depressed when they fail for an exam, for example. When, for instance, feeling heart broken --love pain-- is one of the real forms of depression as a mood. Because depression is a state of low mood and aversion to activity that can affect a person's thoughts, behaviour, feelings and physical well-being. Depressed people can feel sadness, anxious, emptyness, hopeless, helpless, worthless, guilty, irritable, or restless. But being ''down'' doesn't necessarily equal being depressed.

I, for example, think a lot about the missery in the world, which can make me feel pretty fucked up at times, sleepless nights, etc. I believe that can be seen as depression. Though, luckily, I haven't felt that way for a long time now.

Listening to music and talking to a friend usually helps.
