  1. There is a difference between #MajorDepressiveDisorder, which is a brain chemical imbalance, often genetically linked, leading to feelings of sadness or emotionlessness, and #SituationalDepression, an emotional response to a painful, difficult, or horrible life situation.

    IMO, we need to start normalizing the latter. Medicating people for a reasonable response to war, plague, hatred and worldwide enshittification isn't the answer. Fixing the shit is.
