YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Depression is not a mood disorder. It is a cognitive distortion. It impairs reality testing via catastrophising. Cognitive distortions could be positive adaptation (e.g., infant’s grandiosity).

Two wrong pieces of advice:

1. If you feel hopeless – suicide is an option. It never is a legitimate course of action when it comes to mental health.

2. Socializing is the key to happiness. Maybe, but not always and not for everyone.
