I watched. Larry King had the most accurate, told in simple terms, description of depression that I've ever heard. He used the scenario of losing everything or gaining 20 million dollars. Those with true depression react the same which is basically no reaction. A depressed person feels like they are in a hole. That's what depression is-a flatness so to speak. You react to nothing. People tend to confuse depression with sadness and it's not. It's more complex and part of the problem the word depressed is overused.
