People who are not depressed almost disturb me. They seem irrational and in denial of what life is really like. It's one thing to be content with life, hell, one can even be content with life and meet all the critera for life, but those who think that's ill? I don't get it.
I have mood swings, maybe it's bipolar, maybe it's just anxiety, who knows, but even in my happiest moments, I don't think depression is so crazed.

Don't you think depressed people disturbs people that are not ?
People are only depressed as they chose to be that way
Is it called the Poor me syndrome ?
Oh poor me I am depressed can anyone help me
I need some antidepressants to make me feel better
On come on get real with yourself
Put on a some happy music, dance, exercise
Why just sit a round and be depress
And don't say you can't be happy
You chose not to be happy, it comes down to you and your choices
Life is what you make it, so if you don't like your life change it
Love & Blessings

You know, we are not irrationaly and are fully aware of life and what it is like. The difference is how we choose to deal with things. Instead of seeing something as doom and impossible, we see the surrounding possibilities.
Life is not always peaches, and things get absolutely challenging for all of us, but it is not a reason to give up, instead, rise to the challenge, it will make you stronger. The more that you beat life at its own games, the more that you gain confidence that you can do anything. It is a great feeling.
Another thing that helps is that I work a lot with a community volunteer organization and often help those that have much less in life than I do in terms of opportunity. Seeing them, and helping them, makes me realize that even on the worst of my days, I am lucky.

To tell you the truth...I know too well what you are asking. Ever since I became deoressed for the first time 3 years ago, I've been up and down ever since. Istarted using light drugs, drunking, smoking and eventually I started to cut myself. My parents took me to a doctor ad he gave me antidepressants. At first I didnt take them, but when I started to, I felt so much better! I couldnt belive me want to love and recieve love. I couldnt believe that I no longer had the desire to get high or drunk. I never knew I could feel that happy. Well, the doctors saw my drastic improvement and decided it was time for me to stop taking them. I was ok for the first few months, but after that I went downhill again...I started to cut myself very seriously. I still hvae a scar from 2 years ago that will never go away. Now Im 17 and the only time I'm happy is when I'm with my best friends (my friend rachael and my bf sam) I now started drinking and smoking again, although I havent gone back to drugs. I cut myslef a fwe months ago, but stopped. My parents want to put me back on meds. Honesdtly though...I think that happiness comes from us. I mean maybe you dont want to admit this, but arent you comfrotable being depressed? I like it almost...its what I know best so in a sense its too scary to be happy again. My advice is seek help...I'm going to take medicine again as help, but I think that I will be able to help myself more than anything or anyone. Good Luck on your quest for happiness...its a battle a lot of us must fight whether it be fair or not.

You have asked an honest question. To not feel depressed, is a wonderful feeling. It is not denying that life is hard.......it is realizing that life is, also, full of wonderful people and things. It is enjoying sunshine, raindrops, trees, flowers, and people who are nice. It is waking up in the morning, ready to meet the day's challenges, and to smile inside. It is not being afraid of good people.............it is believing that things will turn out just fine, with a lot of work. Being depressed can be like living in a dark cave, and when the depression goes away, it is like coming out of that cave and just bathing in wonderful, warm light.

Being not depressed is amazing. We don't sit around all day trying to be happy when we can't. We can be happy all day and not pretend to be happy. And were not irrational we are optimistic. If you find optimism worse than pessimism than you're irrational

Dude, We are not made or wired to be depressed. Unless your a teenager, when this occurs naturally as a process of growing, You gotta lighten up.
