Is it normal to feel extremely depressed?

Ok, im the kind of guy who is apathetic about everything, but every now and then, i just feel extremely sad and like i want to die. Even though i have pretty much everything i want/need.
When this happens i usually sit alone and think making it worse, but even a couple hours after i completely forget why i was upset... IIN?

    Yes it is normal, but i suggest you are just thinking of yourself. try doing somthing for someone else bring joy to someone else and it will bring joy to you. Call on the all mighty creator for faith and help. pleasing yourself or doing things for yourself will make you feel like that.... just cry out for help to get over it and do somthing for someone else.

    Pretty normal. I'd suggest doing some tests for bipolar disorder, or maybe borderline personality disorder if the depression and mania are more rapid cycling or accompanied by a fixation on body appearance. Whatever you do, I wouldn't be a gun-owner with that mind-state, an impulsive gun owner is likely to kill themselves when they may have lived had they not owned a gun.

    Normally, I get depressed. Then, I realize that I have a capacity to be happy so I try to be happy. After a while, I realize that I am actually happy.

    Yeah man I get bouts of depression and then I'll look back and ask myself why I was being so dramatic. It's normal for those with depression I think.
