What time frame is required to be clinically depressed? Everyone has something real bad happen once, like death of a family member. I guess some people are psychopaths so maybe they wouldn't ever be depressed.
Situational depression != clinical depression, although there is some controversy over this ATM since the DSM V changed some of that. Generally, symptoms are diagnosed over two weeks IIRC.
Well even if we agree on the two weeks, its not possible to accurately judge severity to idk how this can even be determined. It all depends on how you define the terms.
Been there, done that, believe me people with mild depressive episodes r far from clinically depressed
Of course take it seriously, but depression is actually something else than a depressive episode. It’s weird but eh
My guess, u went thru it without professional help and want people to notice and that u are strong. Even if u don’t notice. Nah difficult situation, been there and done that too
isitnormal to think everyone is depressed, or am I normalising depression?
