Not depressed. Bad.
People feel bad all the time and they're not depressed.
I feel bad right now but I'm not depressed.
Bad feelings happen.

Ok, with feeling bad I meant as in depressed. Really, really bad. People with just extreme anxiety don't generally want to end it, for example. But maybe it was different in your case. Wouldn't know.
Depression is not just thoughts, right? For me it isn't. That's why CBT (or things like it) isn't a cure all. Thoughts can be controlled, depression probably less so (I'm working on the magic formula right now

).
