A genre of music defined by a happy sound and depressing lyrics with the added ability to swing your current mood violently in the opposite direction when listened to.
"Man I was in such a crappy mood until I listened to some Billy Joel and The Doors. Manic Depressive Rock, always does the trick."
"I'm not saying I want to kill myself, BUT GOOD LORD ALMIGHTY do I want to kill myself!! HAHAHAHAHAHAH this a joke. see how its a joke and not me being genuinely suicidal isnt this hilarious??? ahhahahagahahahahfuck"
"... bro quit being passive-depressive and admit you need help for the wellbeing of everyone around you please"
A sub genre of the black metal art, where the music plays a very dark, almost depressing atmosphere that gives you the gloomy, sad impression on life, depressing you with the desperate cry of haunted screams, to the slow, suicidal vibe of guitars. Good examples of depressive black metal are Nocturnal Depression, Make A Change...Kill Yourself, Xasthur, and Shining.
Depressive disorder is a something that happens in the brain...the serotonin cells in the brain just are not enough to stay happy. So the person can be diagnosed with the disorder at any time. The people who live or know someone with it can have a hard time dealing with the person. It is not the person's fault that their body can't produce the serotonin that is need in the body.
