But depression causes you to incorrectly transmute the shittiness of the world into an indictment of you personally as irredeemably shitty. Which leads to a distorted perception. Maybe "illness" isn't the right term, but I'm not really a fan of romanticized notions of depression

Ya I def don’t wanna romanticize it at all. It sucks a lot. I just think it’s based in a rational reaction to the world not just arbitrary.

But, it’s neither arbitrary nor based in a reaction to the world. A person with depression can be depressed in the midst of the greatest of times — and, incidentally, not depressed in, objectively speaking, horrible times.

There's a wide spectrum!
