Depression is a function of boredom, which in turn is a function of abundance and wealth. It exists, but I have never been feeling down/depressed when I didn't have the time to feel like it. Going to Uganda, Africa there is no depression. There is making moves to survive and emotions, but no perma state of depression

@baubergo-
This is one type of depression and yes if you don't have stuff to do, it will arise. However, depression is way more complex than that. It could arise if you have suffered from any type of trauma/bullying in any space (home, school, work) and don't have anyone to share. This will consume you and make you sick.

> This will consume you and make you sick. if you let it yes, if you don't have anyone to share with professional help exists. Hopefully family too. my way of dealing with bullying has been to let it drive me, not consume me.

This is so much easier said than done, though :/ My mom suffers heavily from depression since I was a young kid, she hasnt recovered from it yet and the docs pretty much just put her on meds. It's a sad sight :/

>and the docs pretty much just put her on meds. which is precisly what reinforces the issue instead of solving it. The way out is talking through it, doing something. Being in motion. A healthy group of friends and family is really important because of it. One reasons why it's so big today, less strong family bonds
