I'm just one person, but it really doesn't seem like that to me. There was no awful situation or experience that brought on my depression or continues to make me depressed. I call that situational depression. You aren't clinically depressed. You're just feeling really crappy because your situation is really crappy. Remove the crappy situation or improve it in some meaningful way and the depression goes away too. With clinical depression there is no trigger or "something" that makes you depressed. You could be in a great situation with nothing bad happening and you're still depressed.

Right now I'm in a situation that really weighs heavily on me. Yet I'm not depressed.
