Comment on Relationships between Depression and High Intellectual Potential (2012)parent

Comments

I feel that statements like that are a working out of ideas out loud, with a community, and show a thoughtfulness and curiosity that deserves encouraging amongst humans. If you disagree with an idea, show evidence rather than trying to shame people into silence.

It's not the idea I'm disagreeing with, but the wording used to express it. More specifically the use of word "depression" to refer a condition that does not seem very "serious".
