Black melancholy is where you can't be productive and end up expressing it in destructive, often self-destructive, ways.
Never heard it put this way, but that makes perty good sense. Thanks for sharing.

I guess my depressive times fall into the black area (can't get out of bed or find motivation to do anything, drink myself into oblivion, make sui plots).
