Is it still depression if I'm able to laugh? To be a little bit happy every once in a while?

@ashfiredark930 to me it is. For me, sometimes I have a good day, but still overall feeling down at best. Just like any physical disease symptoms of depression have ups and downs. Use these moments of happiness when you feel depressed again, and know it can and will get better, even if it is for a little while.

Yes, I believe that you can laugh and cry the same day... week...moment. It is hard.
