They aren't exclusive.

[WarHeRo]

happiness is a mindset, just like depression

[Sreve]

No. It means you need Medical or Psychiatric Help depending on what is causing your depression.

[Emurinus]

They aren't mutually exclusive.

[volusat]

depression is a mental illness, doesnt mean you are more/less intelligent

It sounds like what some stupid YouTube videos would tell you.

Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know. -Hemingway

Then again, Hemingway was probably depressed when he wrote that.

Intelligence and knowledge are double-edged swords. Gotta take the bad with the good. Strive for contentment, not happiness.

When was Hemingway ever not depressed.

I doubt it.
Only in a state of duality and happiness is it possible to create masterpieces.

isnt it a disorder?

โพสต์ดั้งเดิมโดย National Institute of Mental Health:

Depression (also known as major depression, major depressive disorder, or clinical depression) is a common but serious mood disorder.

[Candyy]

There is no correlation between these 2 🤷‍♀️

[Steve]

I believe it means you have at least some degree of intelligence.

Dumb people can be depressed as well as smart people. Same goes with rich and poor people.

Depression is rated E for everyone.

Having depression is no way correlated to intelligence. It just means the person has made a lot of bad decisions in life.
