The feeling that can totally change your life. consumption of depression can lead to things that are irrational, but at the time seem wonderful to do such as..... suicide and drug consumption. Love or not being loved can be a big factor in being depressed because the one feeling that is stronger than depression leads to it faster than anything else
I am feeling so depressed right now because I feel that no one loves me for who I am, nor will they ever see because no one looks beyond what they see with their own two eyes

*noun*; prolonged economic crisis characterized by drastic (i.e., >20%) decline in output, reduction in employment, and deflation. Other technical conditions include a liquidity trap and "permanent" (i.e., persisting in many sectors for several quarters) failure to reach equilibrium.
Usually the word "depression" (when referring to economics) is used to refer to the Great Depression, although in fact there were eight incidents of a global depression between 1815 and 1922. These were
--- 1815-21
--- 1832-33
--- 1837-44
--- 1854-57
--- 1867-68
--- 1876-79
--- 1893-96
--- 1920-22
In addition, there have been many localized depressions, panics (e.g., the 1907 Panic {USA}, followed by the Mexican Depression of 1908), and recessions.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RECESSION & DEPRESSION
The technical distinction between a recession and depression can vary, although economists usually agree on which is which. In Keynesian economics, a depression is defined by the existence of a flat liquidity-money (LM) curve (which means that interest rates have no influence on people's determination to hold their wealth as cash); and/or a nearly vertical investment-savings (IS) curve (which means interest rates have no influence on the willingness of entrepreneurs to expand/continue operations).
In contrast, a recession is a much less drastic event. Interest rates still have influence on investment and liquidity, and there is no deflation. Conventional fiscal policy and monetary policy, combined and in moderate doses, can restore full employment.
Neoclassical economics/New Classical economics defines a recession as a shift in people's income/leisure preferences as the result of a technology shock. The technology shock sharply reduces the returns to labor, so workers are paid less and many withdraw their labor from the market. In a depression, the technology shocks are compounded and cause a permanent change in the production function; large numbers of enterprise are no longer viable.
More generally, a recession involves the downward phase of a routine business cycle; these typically occur every three-seven years. A depression represents a partial collapse of the industrial system, and a comprehensive collapse of the financial system.
From 1929 to 1933 the U.S. price level fell 25 percent. Many economists blame this deflation for the severity of the Great Depression. They argue that the deflation may have turned what in 1931 was a typical economic downturn into an unprecedented *sic* period of high unemployment and depressed income.

A very serious mental illness/disorder. That is hard to get through but many people can do it. You just have to keep going. You can be having the best time of your life, and it will still be there. The guilt, the anxiety, the hate, the disgust. It is horrible and absolute hell to go through. I suffer from depression and I have for years. I have been diagnosed aswell. But they're is still people who dont believe or who use the word depression like it's just sadness. It's not a feeling!
Depression is real and serious

Everyone around you is breathing so easily, and you sit alone gasping for air. No one bothers to check if you need help because why would you? why would anyone need help with all this air? And you keep on choking and gasping watching everyone breathing easily.
person1:Do you think there is something wrong with her? like depression maybe?
person 2:Why would there be? Life is so good!

You cant really explain depression....its different for all of us....is lyk a state of utter despair and sadness. A void that covers you in despair. Depression affects the way you think....its like being isolated inside yourself... you cant get out until its too late.

A feeling which words cannot explain its horror.Neither do people.Neither do psychologist.Neither do anyone else. Everyone has different views on different feelings,but depression is just so scary that words can never explain how miserable,terrible,sad,scary,or terrifying it is.
Sadly,our society see it as stigma and something that's small. Millions of people commit suicide and do drugs because of depression,and depression is a silent killer to murders,killings,and crimes worldwide.
Some people become unimaginable,paranoid and fucked up because depression silently rules their mind.But,this is only 2% of alll the scary shit depression can do to you.It just harms you so badly,that you literally don't feel human anymore.You just feel like something else.Depression is just too much to handle
Person 1:Hey I have depression
Society:GET OVER IT THEN
