The University of Life, bro.
But come on every second person says they've had depression. Oh you were sad for a fortnight? **** me, that happens! People think negative feelings should be less permanent than others, or they only last a few hours, and you should perk back up by the next day. Sometimes you feel low. These days any prolonged sadness is considered depression. Half of the stories in this thread are so tenuous.
I'm 30, and I can't say I've had anywhere near the same experience as you in regards to people citing depression and anxiety as often as it seems you do.
I probably wouldn't go using AFL/NRL players as a measuring stick to societies current issues either.
