Do I have the right to feel depressed even if I'm privileged?

it's like saying do i have the right to die, even if i'm dressed in white? it doesn't matter what "privileges" you have depression is a state, a feeling resulted from an interpretation of what's around you intepretation based on your current beliefs changing the beliefs => interpretation changes => feeling changes doesnt matter if you are rich or poor a happy person nourishes everyone

Of course! Just because you have materialistic items does not mean that you MUST be happy, wealth can't buy happiness as they say.

We cannot always choose what we feel! Of course you do and you are a great person !

Yes, privilege has no correlation with depression. Never let anyone tell you that you cant be depressed solely of your financial situation, race, gender, or sexual orientation. Your emotions are always valid,

Yes. Mental illnesses don't look at you and say "oh, they are privileged, better not ruin their life." You can be the most privileged person in the world and still deal with depression.

Every person is an individual with a unique mind and a open of a kind set of genes. Yes It is absolutely acceptable to have feelings of depression even if you are "privileged". First of all having money doesn't determine our mental well being or level of happiness. Money can be things that make us happy, but it can't buy happiness. Don'y be so hard on yourself and don't compare yourself to other in an effort to convince yourself that you aren't allowed to be unhappy. BUT work toward fixing that depression. Because everyone deserves happiness!

Absolutely. Depression does not occur based on what you have in your life. Depression is generally a chemical imbalance in your brain. So you have absolutely no reason to feel guilty for being depressed.

Depression is a bit more complicated than that there are plenty of examples of people who look like they have everything but suffer from depression. It is a mental illness caused by chemical imbalance. There is a physiological cause for the way you feel. It can affect anyone at any time.

I think everyone has the right to feel depressed at some point and I am not sure what you feel privileged by but it doesn't affect you from having the right to "feel" something. it always kind to remember how your situation is better than some others but it doesn't lesson your hurt or pain or the importance of your feelings to a situation where you don't have the right to feel that way that is just not right and wrong don't ever feel this way.

Absolutely. Feeling depressed is something that humans can feel regardless of their backgrounds or current status.
