Hi InfiniteSadness, some people like myself have a predisposition to depression. Some people fall into depression as a result of trauma. Others live in conditions that worsen mental illness. No matter the case, there's always an opportunity for treatment. I think depressed persons have a deeper appreciation for the little things in life, because pleasure is such a rare commodity. I think we can learn to approach our lives positively, and crawl out of this together. Wish you the best
