    Yeah, that does suck alright. I'm not saying that people who are depressed though should just get over it or just cheer up, or try to pretend they're happy when they're not. But if you're just ruminating on your problems and catastrophising them, rather than dealing with them in a healthy way (like by talking with someone about them), then it's probably best to try to think positive (while still not denying those problems exist either). And there are always little positive things that happen each day that we can think about and make us smile, and usually always little things we can do to improve our situation.

        Well if that's how you feel then you're entitled to, but I formed this opinion based on a period in my own life when I felt depressed, so I don't see how it is. I'm not trying to talk down to anyone, I'm just trying to be helpful.
