Take a shot for the title that explains the thread.

The thing that makes me the most depressed is being existential.

Nothing like thinking that the only point in life is continued existence as a species.

And the fact that someday, Lemmy will die.

If you get too depressed, just look at this picture of kittens.

NOTE: Due to people becoming depressed from looking at the kittens, the image has been changed to puppies.

Surprisingly, nothing really makes me depressed. If it does, I can cheer myself up again incredibly easily.

I guess missing someone/death of someone is really the only things.

Depressing music gets me down. I can be in the best mood ever and someone plays me some Damien Rice and I'll then be in a shit mood all day
Very little actually gets me down. I'm not religious or superstitious and don't care about the big questions. I just wanna be happy and I am happy

This sounds very trivial but office work! Im usually a very cheery person but see me after a 9 till 5 day in an office and im questioning the point of existance and all sorts. I find it so soul crushing

Whenever a comedian or actor I like dies. For example, Greg Giraldo died recently and i'm still kinda bummed about that.

Apart from the death of a loved one, nothing had ever made me that unhappy.

I hear a lot f people saying that listening to Radiohead or The Smiths depresses them though.

I feel quite bad that the first thing I thought after reading your post then seeing the kittens is "there's a high chance that the majority of those cats are now dead".

I run on a base level of anger and depression, so either nothing makes me depressed or everything does. That's a conundrum I'll face when I need to, until then I'll continue being angry at inanimate objects.

Yeah, this. After listening to a whole Radiohead album I'm about ready to throw myself down some stairs or something.

I came into this thread depressed, but now I see KITTEHS.

Now I can't remember why I was depressed.

Yup, I feel the same. Speaking of, OK Computer is a vastly overrated album

Same here. Playing some old retro games cheers me up quite a bit.

Kittens depress me. What hath thou wrought?

In all seriousness, the fact friendships never last forever is the number one thing that depresses me.

Just discovered this song again; makes my heart crawl instead of my skin.

I shall do this in list form for convenience.

- My College program
- Stress
- Really melancholy songs, which at the same time I sort of enjoy... Go figure.
- Missed opportunities
- Missing people/pets
- Butchered friendships
- Unintentionally skipping something in a video game that I won't be able to do unless I start over/finish and do a second play-through.
(An example of this would be finally getting around to finishing Final Fantasy XII and to learn about the really obscure method of obtaining the Zodiac spear. Or playing through Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time HD, and missing ONE sand cloud needed for the gold trophy you get for collecting all sand clouds.
/end pointless rant)
