In what way is our genetic code changing in this way? Anyone with "biological" depression knows what you're saying barely applies to the average person and, even so, much - much - less to them. At the very least, not without some serious luck in finding a medication that somehow works for them. Because this depression robs one of the ability to change. It reminds me of the mythical Medusa. Turns people to stone.

Honestly, the concept you're advocating strikes me as revolting. I hate reading this kind of shit. It's so fucking delusional, and it gets up-voted in spite of it, or perhaps because of it. This whole line of thinking is a major contributor to the perpetuation of stigma, because it allows people to shrug other people's suffering and failures (even their own) off as a matter of choice or ignorance - like all that's separating someone who committed suicide from his happy-go-lucky neighbor is a matter of "wrapping" one's head around some basic idea or vision of the world.

It doesn't fucking work like that, man. If that's all there were to it, people would do and believe anything to feel better. They wouldn't kill themselves. They'd almost always follow that shitty, useless, piece of advice; since life always gravitates towards increasing its well-being and avoiding suffering.

But what we see are individual people, all equal in their essential nature as parts of a common Universe, limited by their limited physical makeup and stuck within their unique paths. They are, by definition, unable to heal themselves on their own. Their fate depends upon the action(s) of those around them, to either help or get rid of them.

We're all living this Hellish experience together, and it'll go on until depressives are either cured, or buried deep underground. There is no avoiding that. Death isn't even something to be feared. It's nothing at all. The atrocity is that people who head that way are usually forced to get there through a painful process, even though it's entirely superfluous.
