Yes, at least for me, I've had it for 3 years and the more I fall into depression, the less time it lasts. You'll know how to deal with it faster and much better. I hope I answered your question! :)

I think it depends on the person and how severe their depression is. If you're working to rid the depression, it can go away but it can also stay. In time you will probably get more used to it, and maybe know ways you can help yourself through it.

Yes it does. That's because you learn more about yourself and about your depression and you learn more how to control it.

I think it depends. For many people it get's better with time and for some people it gets worse or stays the same. Everyone is different and you should never be ashamed to seek help from doctor's or somebody who have gone through it, if you need it.

They say time heal wounds, physical wounds heal easily while mental takes more time usually.
You see time sure heals wound but it doesn't guarantee that there will be no scars left. You have to improve yourself and work hard to get out of the deep depression so it cannot leave a scar on you.
And then one day in life you will thinking back and laughing, seeing how you were performing in past.

Yes. It does, indeed. You become more aware and tolerant of it over time, and for most people, it goes away completely, eventually.

Depression definitely gets easier. When you are in the darkest weeks/months/years of your depression it is so incredibly hard to believe, but as someone who got through those days I can assure you that you will find coping mechanisms and ways to accept your depression and get through it. Look at it like your wading up a river. Its difficult and tiring. Some days, the currents are so tough or you are so tired you get pushed back. You might even find your self falling right back to the beginning. The top of the river looks so far away but eventually you will get so sick of being stuck in the currents you will force your way to the top. People will show you how to create rafts and build bridges and yeah, you'll be tired and hurt, with cuts and bruises, but they heal with time and eventually you will look back down the river and realise how strong you were to get to the top.

It depends on the type of depression you are suffering from. If its severe, you may need proffesional help in dealing with it. Others may fade away with time. However, it depends on how the person approaches the situation.

Often times depression does get easier with time, but like anything else it is a learning process. It takes time to learn to manage your symptoms and recognize your triggers, and learn to respond to them appropriately and in a healthy way. One of the best ways to learn these skills is with coaching, counselling, (like here on 7 Cups!) or therapy. Medication can help with symptoms too, and should be monitored by a doctor or psychiatrist.
Over time the overall feelings of depression can change; they may go into remission and you may never feel depressed again. Every person is unique and each case is unique. Do not hesitate to talk to someone.
