being depressed doesnt mean you dont feel emotions. Jesus.

If anything, depressed persons are persons who have undergone several life stressors (Failure to thrive, Loss, life changing events such as a cheating gf, dropping out of college) combined with an inability to cope with said issue. Over a long period of time, this can caused neurotransmitter imbalances and maladaptive behaviors such as binge eating, never going outside (leading to decreased vitamin D, which causes feelings of depression), weight gain (decreased self-image, and social isolation)

catatonic depression is extremely uncommon, and usually associated with other disorders (negative symptoms of schizophrenia, depression in bipolar disorder)
