Oh, yes. Most definitely. Lack of motivation for most everything, especially for things you used to like, is a big part of being depressed. It can be very difficult to live with or to overcome.

I told my therapist a few years ago that I've been depressed for so long, I think I would miss feeling this way if it ever stopped. It would be like missing an old friend.

Every once in a great while, I sort of wish that I wasn't depressed, but that feeling tends to pass with the next breath I take.
