I do not go depresed all day, bu there have been times when I have ben so for a week or two or maybe even a month.
I guess support from family, friends and lovd ones as well as a pleasant change would do onders to make u feel good.
Also I do not prefer unning away form hat depresses me, I rather just ignore it blindly or get used to it, or just realsie that I have to live with it whether i like it or not

escaping a bad situation or life problems is definately not a wise thing to do. good that u have a fighting nature.

This is a simple but good question, I think we get depressed for quite a few reasons. the first being we have a genetic tendency to depression,a mental deficiencies on how to cope with "change" in our lives, and a 3rd is just general lack of understanding of things outside of what we know...there are many more reasons I am sure..but these for me are the main points on how my depression sets in.
I totally am not depressed right now, but am still taking anti depressants for the last 5 yrs(min) and you know why I wont give them up...I am too scared to go back to the person I was, when the person I am is so much more empowered and alive...one day I will get rid of them...but until then... I'm happy being me with the help of anti depressants..... any other opinions?????

Crazy to add a comment to your owe comment but anyway. LOL I truely believe ..no one can know how you feel until they have walked in your shoes...
I remember distinctly when times have been crazy...to me...extremely tough..... I have had to call my sister and say "Is this natural to be feeling this overwhelmed because of this issue?"..,thankfully I have an extremely loving and understanding sister to say...yes...that is normal.. wait 24 hrs and you will see it ...you wont feel as anxious about the situation...Ever time she is right..but for me it is an unnatural, almost unbearable feeling...somehow knowing me she understands...but so many ppl don't understand that most ppl's idea of what is normal especially in regards too emotion....is not my norm!

People usually get depressed if something goes out of their expectation. It doesn't go for all aspect in our life, just some aspect that we really care. Something that really important. You'll easily get depressed when you think you can't fix the situation.

expectations definately lead to depressions. when something isnt the way we expct we get so cross and frustraed depressed and feel tht its the end of life
