Maybe goldustsongbird is extremely sensitive to sunlight (or lack thereof)??
anyway, I just want to state that I was NOT making light of actual clinical depression, but rather taking her original post at face value.

no thats fine. she did seem to be talking about what you described. she just used the word depression which refers to clincal depression and so I was directing the query about which one it was to her.
