      If we’re talking clinical depression, then it’s innate and even a perfect society will need to treat them.

      If we’re talking depressed the mood because you were obsessing over something depressing, then stop doing that.

      In both cases it’s the root cause that needs to be addressed, not the frowny face symptom. We need to pursue a perfect society in a healthy way.
