If your depression is called by candida, for instance, depleting your body of vitamin B, or simply very poor nutrician, then taking it will help.
I don't think depression effects what you absorb, but instead what is causing your depression is causing that effect. I've never heard of someone's mental state affecting how they took in various things, however it is an interesting concept to look into.
Could some have problems taking things because they were in the right state of mind first? If the mind can cause some people to have instant diarreha whenever they are upset, or anxious about something, then who knows what else its doing to us.

About the candida thing... do you live mostly off of sugar and/or alcohol? Do you get sugar cravings where you consume large amounts of sugar without knowing why? Some binge eating is caused by that.I've been taking MCT which has two types of acid in it which fight candida, and formerly ate some coconut oil my stomach didn't really agree with, for the same reasons. I gave up sugar some time last year, eating junk food for the first time today in a significant amount of time.
