Depression is a form of anger?
Somehow, I got reading about depression in relation to anger tonight. I came across the idea that depression is just rage, but repressed. I'm not sure if I agree or not.

well it could be a mixture of things
anger, sadness, and grief
it’s pretty common for depressed people to express it in anger and sometimes it does feel like repressed rage but i guess it’s a mix of anger and sadness

I'm trying it out, exploring the root of my depression and exploring it instead as the root of my anger... I think it can both me true and also not true... much like you both have said... Hopefully this view point brings peace

I don't think I agree this is true for every person's depression. Some maybe but definitely not all. Depression seems to be born mostly out of sadness or loss.
