While the symptoms of depression are always consistent, there are different times of the year that depression may occur or even during the day! For example seasonal depression is a specific type that means an individual is depressed only during the winter months. Bipolar disorder (previously manic depression) includes depressive episodes which can happen at any time of day, week or month.

There are different types of depression. I was diagnosed with hereditary, while other people just may go through hardships and be diagnosed.

Very much so. There is deep depression to the point where you quite literately can't get out of bed, and there is the lighter depression where it's harder to do things but you can push through it and get them done. And there is a lot in between.

Of course. Variability arises in depression with many doorways. One of which would be acute depression, not ongoing or severe but comes and goes. Chronic depression is on going and can be detrimental to yourself and others around.

There are a lot of different kinds of depression, each one has in my opinion a separate trigger. each one causes pain but there are different classifications. essentially different breadths and depths for example: Chronic Depression vs. Seasonal Depression.
