"mom, please you need to stop smoking!"
"no, I don't honey"
"but you can barely climb up the stairs and you're coughing out blood"
"tell you what, dear. if you could make 1,000,000 people to like a status on your facebook, I'll quit smoking"

I had a dumb friend that was depressed and he posted things on facebook about his disorders and posted stuff like "**** you depression" . He had no reason to be depressed and his family gave him a sizeable portion of their income so he just looked dumb cuz he had no job and he was on facebook all day talking about being depressed like a ******* moron.

People can be depressed even if their parents give them a lot of money, and even if they have no obvious reason to be depressed.

I've always seen depression as a disorder precisely because you have no reason to be depressed. If you are depressed because your dog died or you are struggling with a rough break up, then nothing is really wrong.

Right, depression isn't just sadness about some sad state of affairs. Typically, the least helpful question to ask a person who is depressed is, "What are you depressed about?" Most often, the person doesn't know. That's a large part of what makes it so hard to tackle.

There's a STARK difference between clinical depression and "boo-hoo, I haz a sad" depression.

In order to cure his depression his parents ought to hurry up and cut him off completely.

Depression's really got to do with what levels of serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine you produce.

I've run the full gauntlet as far as depression goes. Found what works for me. Constant work, Lexapro, regular exercise and a healty diet, and avoiding alcohol (2 beer max generally). Took a decade to figure out and the develop the discipline to properly execute it, but I got there.

Of course, outside factors will then make it difficult for a person to deal with it...and parents who move beyond supportive to enabling is probably one of them

I'm with you Claghorn, I got much better when I kicked the alcohol and started working 7 days a week.

Not to mention the fact that often the more money you have, the easier it is to become depressed. I'm part of a the generation where thousands of semi-wealthy parents support their kids who wont or cant find jobs. They lay around the house all day doing nothing and get very seriously depressed. The ones who have got no money get up, go to work and generally live happier lives than the layabouts.
