Part 2. I was merely temporarily sad, unhappy, weepy. I am glad you wrote this to alert those who do not suffer from it that there is a word called depression that means devastatingly different things than we tthink. Excellent poem-devastating state of being

Depression is a difficult topic to approach. For those who do not have it in the devastating psychological sense, it is ranked alongside the word: " sad" .In fact, I have often said- Gee, I'm so depressed today. Well, in one definition of the word, I was depressed. I was sad and weepy. But in the psychological sense, I was not depressed.
