The way you describe sadness; believe it correlates w/ situational/atypical depression.
I may have had situational/atypical depression when I was young, but I took strong anti-depressants.
I wish they would categorize ADs.
A person w/ situational/atypical depression is sad, cries, or grieves for a situation in their life, that may be fleeting, and not necessarily a situation in their brain.
Maybe if society were a bit more patient and loving.
I know times I've taken stronger ADs or benzos or sleeping aids, so as 'not to lose my job when overwhelmed w/ sadness'!
Think? cf
