That's not true. The individual can take steps to overcome/cope with depression, which many are too unmotivated or otherwise unable (or even unaware) to do, but nobody just *decides* to be depressed.

The reason that depression is so high among young people today (especially high-school and college age students) is because the majority of them don't have a full-time job, and they have entirely too much free time. Young people are also spending way too much time indoors when they rave about wanting to go out into the world and explore nature, but make no effort to do so.
Our current culture also reinforces depression by making people think it's perfectly acceptable to be a lazy slug, lounge in your bed all day and think about how bored you are because you're "depressed". When young people put themselves into the mindset that their "depression" is a disease and they're supposed to just do as little as possible until they feel better, well, you're going to quickly have a lot of depressed people. If someone opens up to you about their "depression", you will ultimately realize that 95% of the people who claim to have depression just describe depression as being tired (because they stay up too goddamn late on their phones or computers). As someone who went through a month and a half of REAL depression (when my girlfriend was strangled by her step-father, the state did nothing about it, and we couldn't see each other for a long time.), 95% of people who claim to have depression do, in fact, inflict it on their selves. --- I've grown. ...

Young people are also spending way too much time indoors when they rave about wanting to go out into the world and explore nature, but make no effort to do so. -or also being 30k in debt from school -finding it hard to find a decent job, especially a full time one -standard of living is so fucking expensive if anything milennials are hustling to make a living. The claims about milennials being lazy or wanting handouts are untrue. We got dealt with a bad hand from previous generations but this doesn't include depression from traumatic events like losing a loved one Anyway, if you are depressed for a long time, your brained is wired differently and its hard to get out of what you feel as it eventually becomes natural. --- Less is more.

Not a bad topic
And the long posts weren't that bad either I've got my moments, but I keep it together for the most part I do think a lot of sadness is often caused by the depressed person themselves. There are things that depressed people do that makes them more depressed later on... like cutting themselves off from their friends and family. Not answering calls and shit. There are people trying to help and a lot of times they aren't welcomed by the depressed. Then they stop communicating altogether. If you make no effort to be happy, you won't be. You have to try to connect. Tell a joke. Do it in a funny way or something. Shit, it's what I do. --- "i was a mistake" - ahmedzub ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's not self-induced, it's caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain and can be exacerbated by stressful real-life concerns. Depression medication helps put the chemicals back in order.

um no.
i didn't decide to become depressed and start seriously thinking about killing myself. if i hadn't reached out to my mom for help and started taking antidepressants i'm pretty sure i would have actually committed suicide. same for my little brother, mom, multiple aunts, and my grandma. all of them went through serious bouts of depession where they wanted to kill themselves. got help and put on antidepressants and have lived successful lives. it comes from my maternal grandmother's family. she has sisters and cousins that actually killed themselves. tell me that isn't something more than "self-induced" i fucking dare you. --- go join the "expletive not allowed" nazis then. you "expletive not allowed" psycho- Spudger 01/15/17 ...

Just FYI the "chemical imbalance" thing is no longer taken seriously by psychiatrists anymore. Your brain is more complex than just a bunch of chemicals being in the right amounts. Depression isn't just "oh I'm lacking serotonin for some genetic reason outside of my control, I need more serotonin and the only way to get that is through medication". Depression is absolutely influenced by your outlook, and is usually caused by environmental circumstances, some of which you have control over.
And before you say anything, I went through it once before and I'm going through it again. I can pinpoint the reasons and circumstances. It isn't just a chemical imbalance out of nowhere. --- SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SlG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SlG ...

Depression is absolutely influenced by your outlook, and is usually caused by environmental circumstances, some of which you have control over. It's not the entire picture, but it's incorrect to go as far as to say it's not relevant anymore. There are several neurotransmitters implicated, and neurons aren't the most plastic of tissues, which explains the long delay before SSRIs even take an effect. Acknowledging that doesn't mean the environment doesn't play a role, however. The nature/nurture debate has been "settled" for some time and it's a combination of both. Most people have a very elementary understanding of genetics. They don't understand gene expression or epigenetics. So having the "wrong" genes doesn't necessarily imply a problem will express itself, and just because the environment impacts how genes are expressed doesn't mean things like serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, etc aren't dysregulated as an effect of this pathology. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." ...

They can also ensure your brain is incapable of regulating itself ever again. Someone with high blood pressure can't regulate that system either, and if they don't take the meds, they die. Someone with diabetes can't regulate their insulin receptor sensitivity.
