Depression
is not sadness. Sadness is an emotion. Depression is the absence of
emotion. It is emptiness. When you're depressed, you care about
nothing, feel nothing, and do nothing. Even getting out of bed in the
morning is an ordeal. Since it can come as a way of coping with
sadness, depression is like suicide of the soul. Rather than feel the
sadness brought on by life events, just kill all emotion and be a
zombie.
One deals with sadness by getting out of the sad situations. Anti-depressants do nothing to help this. Depression is a physical ailment that requires medication to alleviate. The drugs don't help you feel better. They just help you feel.
