I hear you. I do understand what you're saying, and I think the idea that being sad = depression is one that contributes a LOT to the enormous cultural misunderstanding of mood and anxiety disorders, but there is also such a thing as situational depression. The problem is that it's difficult for someone on the outside to tell whether the person has legitimate situational depression, or is just experiencing a normal range of sadness because of life stress.

That being said, it does really bother me when people are like, "I'M SAD! DEPRESSION!", or "I'M MOODY! BIPOLAR!", or "I'M NERVOUS ABOUT THIS ORAL PRESENTATION! ANXIETY DISORDER!". There is a normal range of depression, anxiety, and moodiness that people will feel throughout their lifetime. The problem is that, since most people have experienced the feeling of being depressed, and the feeling of being anxious, they think that their experiences with that normal range of human emotions is what depression the disorder and anxiety the illness is. And it's not. There is a difference between BEING depressed and HAVING depression.
