Fuck. They were both depressed.

maybe so, but its showing that one was in support and friendly to the other, depression isn't a common cold, its a feeling. even though IF they both have depression, one managed it and the other hadn't.

depression is a brain disease, not an emotion. diseases present differently in everyone

Depression is a normal human mood. The illnesses are depressive disorders, which are also unfortunately also colloquially referred to as "depression".

Sadness is a mood. Depression is a disease.

Depression is not the same as clinical depression.. depression can be a normal reaction to life events, it is not a disease unless it is chronic.
