Take the Depression Test

... and here's why. The symptoms that led this web game to think I have a slight to moderate chance of depression? Are all normal symptoms of perimenopause (most of them due to not sleeping). I don't even know what I'm getting at (haven't had enough caffeine yet) except that maybe ... are we, again, calling normal female processes illness? (Not that not sleeping won't depress you!)

Also, one of the questions was to the effect of "Do you think unhappiness is a normal part of life, and that happy people are deluding themselves?"

What kind of conflation is that? Unhappiness is a part of life, and so is happiness. Anyone who's only experienced one or the other would be exceedingly rare. I had to answer "No" even though the right answer is "Yes to the first part and no to the second except in those specific cases where I think the happy person is a delusional idiot."

I do actually enjoy these quizzes but they're really badly composed.
