I heard this from some people I also heard it's a disorder. Yes. I have depression and nothing is helping (med, etc..) but i'm still holding onto life and trying to make the best of it.

well! sometimes the opinion of others are needed. However, depression is a disorder that has been confirmed by doctors.By show of studies and research the un-medical eye can look at depression as a disease that cannot be cured by man made medicines. In your case, you sholud seek to find the source for your depression and try to resolve the issue, A variety of short-term psychotherapies have proven effective for depression and the soul is stronger than the mind that keeps you alive. ATTACK the SOURCE! good luck to you

mental disorder, not a disease. Disease implies the presence of bacterial/viral microbes.
