There is a woman at work who is clinically depressed. She is seeing a psychiatrist and taking medication for the problem. I accept her for who she is, accommodations are sometimes made for her situation and I am good with that. Depression is something that one would want to overcome, and it is also something that I can accept and tolerate. I certainly wouldn't scorn her for her condition, mock her condition or otherwise denigrate her.
