Rant/Rave - I think I'm a bit depressed

[thrill]

We've lost a couple to a division rival, let's not over think this depression business.

What has helped me get through this trying period is the fact that I attended the two Cubs losses here in Phoenix these last two days.

I'm trying to figure out how being depressed could be a rave.

I think it's important for people to experience the entire spectrum of human emotion. You can't fully understand happines/joy without sadness/depression. I also tend to do some of my best work (and mandolin playing) when I'm a little depressed. It's weird but it's almost a little motivational tool for me sometimes.

That's a completely ridiculous statement. You've obviously never experienced real depression nor known someone that has. If you had you would know it's not something to be taken lightly.

I know that. I wasn't talking about full blown depression, more of a 5 day downswing kind of thing.
