I don't know at what point "sadness" becomes "depression" or if technically it ever does or already is. I know that if I answer honestly that I have had many times in my life over 50 some odd years that I have felt a sadness that seemed like it was so bad that nothing could even be near as bad... But then I am blown away by something that seems to take me to a all new low. The feeling of an empty stomach and the loss of motivation to even eat something or only sleep when you are at a point of literally shaking from weakness. I know that sometimes it is possible to play a song that was somehow imprinted with that extreme moment of swimming in a all time low and I find a certain satisfaction of becoming submerged to the point I lose all concept of other things around me that might be dragging me down. But whether it is sadness, hurt, or actually depression I can not say.
. Unfortunately this is just another poll that has a different heading, our Pedro has already read all we have said about it and it is up to the person to help themselves, some people have been depressed and do not acknowledge it, others immerse themselves in it for self pity. Unless you use your fingernails and scratch your own way out of it you are always going to slide back in if you use the pitying of others.
