I do agree that we as a society seem to be automatically looking for excuses, and I'm no exception, nor do I mean it as a generalization that everyone does. I do try my best to take responsibility for my actions, and wish others would as well...
Being someone who was diagnosed with a chemical imbalance, I don't know that I could have "bucked up" and gotten over it myself. Luckily I responded well to medication and I don't even have to take that now.
I agree with what others here have said. Telling a truly depressed person they are a failure is most likely not going to get the results you desire, and could have very bad consequences.
