Whether you say it or not. It doesn’t change anything. The field of Psychology has done a lot of study on it. It is safe to say you’re ignorant in this field. So go grab a book like you peach to others.

Okay.

I'm tempted to say depression doesn't exist, but laziness and lack of faith do. Luckily, I won't say it.

Smart man

I see people use the word depression without knowing what it truely entails...people also mistake sadness for depression which baffles me a lot...I suffered depression also and mehn I saw no use being alive anymore..
Depression is having a body that wants to live but a mind that wants to die.
I was going through a lot in my life once and it felt like I should just end the nightmare once..it was like I was afraid of dying but I didn't want to live anymore...I lost motivation to do anything,I hid from the world,I isolated myself and spent my day thinking and crying,I lost the urge to even eat and I lost so much weight,I felt like my life had no meaning...Depression is the deepest point of sadness where you feel it was better you were dead than alive...
Tips that helped me
-I started exercising eg weight lifting, cardio exercise like running and also playing football.
-I started socialising more,going out with friends.
-I started watching funny movies and videos like comedy skits just to boost my mood
-I spoke to my elder brother about it(tho I didn't tell him I was almost suicidal) and he gave me advice and was calling me constantly and we spoke a lot.
-I bought a ps3 with a lot of games in it and played it most time
-I left social media especially Facebook,Instagram(was only on WhatsApp) kos seeing people Happy and living their lives made me more depressed than ever...
Just avoid being alone with your thoughts and you will be fine

Depression can be crazy something. You can be happy for a whole month, and it just comes back out of the blue. Especially when you're idle.

Idleness makes it far worse...
