Willyeee,
I don't see depression as a weakness-it can be viewed as a strength. Some who do not "get" depression may up with lots of anger or passive agressive behavior and can harm people emotionally. Depressives, imo, turn childhood confict inward, while non-depressives can turn it outward affecting others in detrimnetal ways.
It doesn't seem people who succumb to depression are not as strong-it seems they would be less likely to harm others when comparing maladaptive behaviors. I see it more positive than negative, just opinions.
I mean, how many diagnosed with antisocial personalities had an adequate childhood? Something to think about...

"Also on your theory we have to believe that certain individuals,and pick by pick were not able to handle life stressors and cracked,these would be the clinicaly depressed ones,and these people cracked under the same life circumstances non depressed people did,i suppose these people as myself just werent as strong?"
