depressingly optimistic

Depressing, yet somehow optimistic. Typically used when something bad has happened and a pathetic attempt is made to be optimistic about it. It often leads to feeling more depressed.
This would be depressingly optimistic:
Someone you've had a crush on that you couldn't work up the nerve to talk to dies. Trying to be optimistic, you tell yourself, "Well, at least I don't have to stress over trying to ask her out.". Depression sets in when you realize how much you wanted to try.

Depression

A clinical condition caused by an imbalance in the levels of Serotonin in the brain.
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter in the brain which is responsible for feelings of wellbeing and contentment. A decline in the level of Serotonin present in the brain causes severe feelings of anxiousness, lethargy, tiredness and a prolonged sadness.

Depression is a lasting condition, and is not to be confused with being an emo wanker who sits around slashing up for attention.
Emos are milking the whole depression card. They're ruining the seriousness of the issue, much like they ruined checkers, skating and punk music.
If you know of somebody that is legitimately depressed, tell them to seek medical help.

Depression

Often confused with sadness.

Depression is extreme sadness prolonged over an abnormal period of time. You lose interest in the things you used to enjoy participating in, and detach yourself from the ones you love.

Sadness is momentarily being upset or effected by something.

Post-TDK Depression

After watching The Dark Knight, you settle into a depression because of the realization that no movie will ever be as good again.
Man, I was watching Tropic Thunder the other day and it was kinda funny, but The Dark Knight was a million times better. I'm just gonna go watch it on IMAX so I can beat this Post-TDK Depression.

"I'm starting to feel defissioned because Sally is mad at me again for not being supportive and attacking her when I suggest that maybe it's not that people are being mean to her all the time but that her perceptions are warped from her long term depression and she really needs to treat that to solve the problems."
