Why is there no word for "someone who is depressed"? Is there one and I just don't know about it?
I was trying to say something like "Look, I didn't call you because I am occasionally a non-functioning (person who is depressed)." I mean, one can say "because I'm an alcoholic," so can I say "because I'm a depressee"? Except not depressee because it sounds stupid.
Any ideas?
