I kind of get what you mean...while I was in highschool people tried to act like depression was cool. It was related to that whole emo trend....and it really did piss me off because I got accused of trying to fit that stereotype when I was just being myself.

Apparently I didn;t do my hair cool enough to be 'depresssed' I found the whole thing laughable as having real depression likely means you lack the energy to freaking do your hair, use a freaking flattner iron to make hair sit in a certain style....and yes the person who does that and has 2,000 dollars worth of clothes if not more is the real deprssed individual.

SO yeah it annoys me when people trivilize mental illness or romanticize it...I mean it really sucks its not some walk in the park.
