No it actually is that.
Depression is not the same as Feeling depressed/ Feeling down. Depression is like a prolonged MDMA hangover (also caused by neurotransmitter depletion, namely serotonin).
I’ve never had depression or anything like that but as an ADHDer I feel intense solidarity with folks who have a medical condition caused by chemical imbalance that is not taken seriously because randoms without said condition muddy the waters by using it as a soapbox to talk about some bullshit societal/cultural thing they’re mad about at this moment.
