Regardless, if depression is a real illness or not, it's way over diagnosed. Just a means to peddle drugs. Drugs that can make people act out extreme violence and suicide. The truth is some people are just happier and more content than others. And not all people process negativity the same way. Depression is a state of mind. If you can change the state by merely changing your thinking, is it an actual illness?

I had a short spell with it and it really did just take a dedicated change in attitude, perspective, and some healthy habits to help me.
However, my old roommate is diagnosed with depression and he dropped out of school and shit when he had his episode(s). Honestly one of the goofiest, smartest, and happy-go-lucky people I've met until he become just gravely depressed. All bc of the anxiety of changing his major really. It was something he couldn't help. I think the brain chemistry is involved somehow. I still think therapy is the best way to go about it though. Drugs don't change your chemical imbalance overtime to work it out they just help you cope with it until you can't access those meds anymore and you're fucked.
My one weird thing with depression is I've always been afraid of death, I cherish life so I wasn't suicidal. He is and I honestly feel like not wanting to die, but maybe seeing it as not minding if you do is a bit liberating?
