Sadness/Depression

I saw this secret on the LiveJournal Secret site, and I thought it pretty much summed up the difference between depression and sadness perfectly.



By the way, I'm not feeling depressed right now. It tends to come and go, when stress hits it tends to come like a wave. Not ideal bearing in mind I'm currently trying to write a PhD thesis, apply for med school, take med school exams, learn to write essays again and re-learn science for aforementioned med school exams, get work experience for med school, write my application for med school, get a job for the interim period (assuming I get accepted for med school)...
