THIS. The whole 'just snap out of it' attitude goes hand in hand with the 'how dare you behave this way when there are wars/famines/diseases' attitude. They just cannot comprehend that no matter how much you want to snap out of it, you can't, because you can't control it. And it sucks.

To be fair, a lot of teenagers do "snap out of it." I spent the entirety of my teenage years, indulging my hysterical moods until I grew out of it. But Holden Caulfield is different because he's traumatized by his brother's death.

There's regular teenaged hormone shit and there's neurotransmitter dysfunctions. There's overlap, but seriously, the normal funks of adolescence are not mental illness and it does us no favors to conflate the two.

The fact that you are equating "hysterical moods" with "depression" kiiiinda shows that you don't get it.

[(Anonymous)]

No, it's more like - I experienced real depression (am experiencing real depression) following the death of a family member, whereas I recognize that I was indulging my moods when I was younger.

[(Anonymous)]

But the whole point is that the mental illness called "depression" doesn't have anything to do with real trauma. Someone experiencing a form of depression over the death of a family member isn't the same as someone experiencing depression because their brain isn't producing enough serotonin or dopamine or isn't processing them correctly. The problem is you're kind of doing what other people in this thread were talking about. You're saying "this is different, because it's a REAL reason to be upset."

All that aside, I am sorry that you lost someone. That really sucks and I hope things get better for you.
