Re:Ask HN: Beating depression with or without anti-depressants? by tootie on Tuesday April 05, 2022 @11:55PM (#30928297)
You can't always just pin depression on lifestyle. There's a strong biological component that influences your susceptibility to depression and every other mental illness. Some people fall in a pit over what might seem like a minor inconvenience to someone else. Some people get depressed over absolutely nothing.

I agree, but I prefer to start with these things. Smaller measures should only be passed over if they fail. I know what you mean though, I know people with mood issues like what you describe. It’s impossible to make a recommendation that suits everybody.
