Does anyone else ever get depressed like I do for no real reason?

I think so. I get depressed when I'm bored but I usually find something to do to distract myself and I'm fine. Or best of all, I'll either play a PC game or lay down and read a good book. No more depression.

Don't confuse clinical depression with 'feeling' depressed or down.  They are not the same thing.

We, as human beings, often experience highs and lows in terms of feeling happy or depressed.  There are many varying factors that affect those swings of mood and even emotion .. Like for example, the amount of sleep we've had the night before, underlying emotional trauma (like an argument with a loved one), frustration or stress (like losing your favorite set of sunglasses) .. Too many elements in the emotional roller coaster to spray paint the reasoning behind how we feel in terms of being 'up' or 'down' ..

However ... Clinical depression is affected by other things than what typcially happens in our day to day events .. Chemical imbalances in the brain will compromise those 'ups' and 'downs' .. Of which most often can be treated and controlled  with medications to bring back balance to the unbalanced.

Nope.

Not even you.

If you're depressed, there's a reason for it.  Even if YOU don't know what it is.  So you should talk to a doctor or psychiatrist, if you find yourself getting depressed regularly.

Well my psych has me on anti depressants and they do little if anything. When you get old your health goes your not making big money anymore you get depressed throw in a dysfunctional family a divorce your kids hate you your parents passed away yes life starts to suck
