I only see people with depression complain about what other people say. But what are they supposed to say? If you want someone to say something that is helpful talk to a professional and dont complain when other people dont magically cure your depression with a few words
There's plenty to say if you are actually interested and read up on it.
The point isn't always to say "helpful" things like you think of them. They are more likely to be harmful. Depression can't be solved by a sentence. Neither can it be solved by "talking to a professional". It's a long and arduous process. Also depression isn't about being "sad" even. It's a very misunderstood disorder.
Except for when douchebags tell us to just feel better. It's not your place to say anything unless you are a medical professional.
