with real depression caused by poverty, you’re not “simply overwhelmed.”

yes, they are depressed because they ~are~ helpless from being poor. they have chronically, for a long time, not been able to get out of being poor. so they are depressed, chronically stressed.

not being poor will fix it for the vast majority of depressed people.

yes, an aboriginal ~would~ ~definitely~ be considered poor against even a poor american. but they’re not worried about paying rent! they also don’t have a data plan for their cell phone bill to worry about! 🤣
