According to what I've learned, depression is normal....constant depression and sustained depression is not.

24 hour pity parties are okay....as long as they are time limited.

But, those who walk around with the cup is half empty philosophy set themselves up for failure......

There are events that occur that call for depression....tragic events (loss of loved one, income, divorce, death, etc), in particular, produce chemical changes in the brain...that's proven...

I guess we learn to choose the balance between the event and degree of depression...excepting, of course, that which comes as a blindside or a sudden tragic, traumatic happening.
