Well, in fact the first one "Depressive Realism" is a common (false) myth. Depressed people tend to have distorted thoughts about reality with a strong negative bias.

A typical distorted though is over-generalization. For instance: if a depressed person fails to pass an exam, he may think that he will never be able to pass that exam and his life is a complete failure because of that. Of course that though is NOT the reality. The reality is that he probably need prepare better for that exam, but that does not mean that his life is a complete failure.

If someone is interested in this topic I recommend the book "Feeling good" by David Burns.
