I don’t think you understand depression. There’s a big difference between depression and sadness … like the difference between purple and green. They are just not comparable. This is not shades of a different color.
My personal experience is: “I’m sad” and that can mean… “I want to cry”
But If im depressed can be like “I’m happy.., and yet.. I don’t see the point of living.”
- staticman2 1y agoI doubt the distinction between depressed and not depressed is all that clear. I know scales like BDI 2 assign a number and use terms like: – BDI-II scoring: 0-13 is considered none or minimal range depression; 14-19 mild depression; 20-28 moderate depression; 29-63 severe depression. https://strokengine.ca/en/assessments/beck-depression-inventory-bdi-bdi-ii/ https://strokengine.ca/en/assessments/beck-depression-invent... There is no objective cutoff point is what I'm saying.
