There are different forms/levels of depression. While I had a moment or two in my life when I went through some deep depression, I don't think I've ever had major depressive disorder or anything of that level, but I'm very well aware that it can be intensely unpleasant to go through.
That’s pretty much my case. Like everyone, I’ve had the occasional depressive episode, but nothing that required treatment or medication. In that, I consider myself extraordinarily fortunate - I know and have known people in a years-long fight against clinical, serious depression. It’s horrific.
