Have you ever been depressed before?

Question

Do you think everyone gets depressed at one point in their life?

Victorianna · Accepted Answer

Depression is more common than people realise. There's many different reasons for depression and different levels of severity.

I think everyone is susceptible to depression. It can affect anyone at anytime in their life. Usually depression signals you need to make changes in your life, or you need to change how you respond to certain things which affect you in a negative way.

I think everybody has been depressed once in their life and if they haven't so far, they probably will be in the future. Usually time fixed everything. I think i get depressed at least once a month. That's probably too much but hey, it's usually because in over thinking things.

Yeah I have. I was depressed when I thought my sister was gonna die and I was depressed when my mom had cancer. I think it's natural for people to get depressed but the key is not to let the depression run your life.

Acute cronic depression (and anxiety for me), can be crippling to deal with. Particularly in younger years. Get help, it is out there if you need it. You don't have to feel like that.

yeah... I recently quit my job, I didn't want to quit... I needed the money but I had no choice and then once I quit I fell into deep depression. didn't eat or sleep, was always angry, I worked out every day since quitting and overcame the depression, I ran, did a lot of upper body exercises and was less depressed...
Now im not as much depressed, but my life could be better.

I have never been depressed in my life, I've had some times where I was unhappy but I got over it, it never took over my life.

Jack_S · Answer

I'm assume you are not refering to diagnosed depression

Anonymous · Answer

I think people use the word depression too loosely. There's a difference between being sad and being depressed... so, no, I don't think everyone gets depressed at one point in their life.

Other_Tommy_Wiseau · Answer

most people have been depressed at some point. i've been in a pretty dark place before and i've been pretty depressed for a good while as of recent. the difference is how people manage it.

BuchitaBuchys · Answer

All the time. I don't think I've ever been not depressed.

Pretty rare not to be depressed to some extent, actually

I usually get depressed when ever I get to busy and I start getting video game withdraws. PS I'm a semipro gamer.

ThatBritishLad · Answer

People say they're depressed when they're unhappy. Two different things.

HentaiMaster23 · Answer

I have depression, so I obviously have been depressed in my life

TheOldMan59 · Answer

I have, but not everyone does. Everyone gets sad sometimes, but that's not the same as clinical depression.

Anonymous · Answer

Yeah, and I think most people do, especially at university when the stress becomes unbearable
