NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I don't know honestly??? University is draining the life out of me right now but other than that I think I'm fine, in spite of my tendencies to say/do things that might indicate otherwise (but at least part of that is just because I like being dramatic sometimes).
Though considering I've often been having low motivation to do anything and sometimes just been staying in bed for over half of the day saying I'm fine might just be a whole lotta cope. :^)
But yeah I would say most of my friend group is not depressed, but I've also never directly asked and you often never know so that doesn't mean much.
If it makes you feel better I haven't met a grad student in the last 20y who wasn't on some psychiatric medication. Basically everyone I knew in school was on antidepressants at the very least and the majority of undergrads were taking stimulants.
