    I've never gone to be diagnosed or anything, but i'm pretty messed up and depressed my whole life. Apparently so was my mother. But, i'm okay for now.

    Which countries are happiest?

    It's amazing but Sudan and some other very poor African countries are the least depressed. Maybe because of inability to test for it but idk.

    I've felt depressed at times, but I will never know if that was actual depression or just a momentary lapse of sadness.
    (And by at times I mean months not like an hour or something lol)

    I used to be depressed but then I was abandoned in a southeast asian community and it cured me.

    Some of ya'll should go to a third world country and have like three kids beg for money and then when you give them all you have and they still keep begging. You kind of feel annoyed but can't really blame them because what are they supposed to do because they are hungry. It is a soul crushing experience, but it makes you realize most of us even the poor people in this country are pretty blessed.

    Like breaking up or getting dumped, the feelings of self worth continuously
    run through your mind. It is very important to find something to take your mind off those thoughts.
    It isn't easy as it seems. It takes a lot of work and every now and then you
    just have to say to yourself to hell with everybody else. Just focus on your wants and needs.

    True.
    Many people that claim depression are just ungrateful and don't really have depression.
    However depression is not a cop out nor is it fake. Telling a depressed person to get over it, or move to a poor third world country is not helpful.

    You might have atypical depression. It can go away for awhile if something positve happens. Look it up. I might have it as well but I'm not gonna go to a doctor
