My question is...
how and why, someone with a perfect life and always happy can have depression? As for me, I am depressed because my life is so ******, I am useless, my existence is nothing, no one needs me, I am ugly, I am fat.....I feel all that until I thought about suicide. So...what's going through in someone who's depressed but happy's mind?

Again, I'm very sorry if this question sounds rude. All that I know is depression doesn't have a face. I just want to know what's going on their mind that bring them to being depressed, suicidal etc.
The short answer to your question is that depression is caused by an organic problem not just outside influences. As someone else pointed out, if you get a virus it has nothing to do with what sort of life you have.

I found an article that gives a fantastic description of what depression is like.
