Depression is a fucked up condition cause it sounds made up. What do you mean your disease is you're sad and don't want to do things. Maybe im just lazy. Otoh emotions are a physical system and physical systems can break down and fail.

Quitting the job that made me depressed has made me depressed. I suspect i might have depression

Vital to my mental health that i find a place to socialize with 20s-30s adults in southeast baltimore

This and the overview effect. Why spend decades cultivating the knowledge, skills, and physical health necessary to go to space when you could just do a bunch of acid in your 20s for the same outcome
