Depression is the unsatisfiable need, the complaint that admits no repair; the empty hole that nothing fits inside; the lack that can't be named; the attitude of such hopeless existential defeatism that even escaping it seems pointless; the low so low that even reflecting on the highest high elicits no joy; the feeling as if something crucial and pure and good has been lost forever, but it's impossible to discern or remember what exactly it was. amirite?

I first heard this phrase "depression is anger turned inwards" from Dr. Jennifer Melfi as expressed to Tony Soprano on the HBO series The Sopranos.

Also, from http://www.ener-chi.com/depress...turned-inward/ : "There is enough clinical evidence now to show that depression is anger turned inwards. Unless anger is expressed in a positive, active way, it accumulates in a passive way and becomes the ’emotion’ of depression. The effects can be devastating."

depression is the sad realization that the world can't be how you want it to be.

I thought it was just a fancy word for....."Feeling bummed out".
