What is clinical depression?

Noun (paradox)

When you can’t prove or disprove something, the side you favor is now automatically right.

The nature of this paradox is so unstable and grave, that everyone now has a PhDs in Philosophy and Ethics.

Paradoxes like this however are only reserved for the lower of magnitude. Their natural habits include FB, Twitter, as well as most political Reddit threads involving stupid instances where it is inherently obvious someone is lying.

Ex. Trump blatantly refusing to bring forth witnesses to defend himself whilst claiming to be 100% innocent. Let’s all forget how law works and become philosophers. This absolutely has nothing to do with my party affiliation, I swear. A real case of Schrodinger’s Clinically Depressed Cat.

What does "clinical depression" mean?

The technical term for depression of clinical significance. Although depression is somewhat ambiguous, this usually refers to a long term struggle to cope with one's self, society and/or their environment.

Clinical depression usually revolves around the concept of brain chemistry according to most psychologists. Researchers insist some people may be predisposed or vulnerable to depression because their brain cannot produce enough monoamines such as serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine. This is often referred to as a chemical imbalance by researchers. When a diagnosis for Clinical Depression is given with the cause being brain chemistry, doctors and psychiatrists will often start shoving various and often unnecessary prescriptions for antidepressant drugs at you. Although, most SSRI drug treatments are harmless and usually produce positive results, if a doctor gives you a prescription and you have had symptoms for less than a year, consider doing more research before you accept a prescription for SSRI drugs since doctors often hand these out like candy, and since pharmaceutical companies have had a major influence in depression research often sponsoring doctors and researchers.

1. "My psychiatrist has given me anti depressants for my legitimate and long term Clinical Depression and I feel good again! I have the motivation to move on with my life now."

2. "After 15 minutes of talking with a psychiatrist I was handed a prescription for a drug that could potentially kill me and give me seizures."
