i had a similar experience recently where my psychiatrist almost dismissively said that my depression was only moderate. unfortunately, i think the implication that being in that state is somehow okay or more manageable is a little misleading - i can barely keep track of my own fluctuations because, personally, moving from 'major' to 'moderate' via a scorecard doesn't create radical shifts in my global functioning. the anhedonia and mental fatigue are still there regardless. it even seems to change on a weekly basis sometimes.
