if youre realy depressed youre down for the whole day, you still got your ups and downs, but with ups I dont mean you will feel good.

If youre down for a few hours a day your not depressed but maybe just bored, its easy to get out of that.

There's different types of depression. Some depressives are down most of the time (manic depression), others down a few hours a day, others down for a period of time (like a month and then it goes away).

Google depression if you want to know more.

The truest depression you can have is when you feel down for a long period of time characterised by a total lack of enthusiasm and motivation for life, accompanied by feelings of helplessness and kind of like no future.

And about manic depression, its called Bipolar disorder now, where you are down for about a week to a month and then you suddenly have a sense of euphoria with racing thoughts and excessive energy and irritability. Then you go back to the depressive episode, and it just keeps happening in a cycle.
