I find depression a curious thing.
I have shit times and shit happens to me, do I just cope better?

I could wax lyrical about this
But in a nutshell, yes you cope better. Have a cookie!

yeah, probably.
some people get shitter times than others, and some people just break.

depends if you are vulnerable from genes or upbringing
www.hearingvoices.org.uk/images/stress.gif if you have higher vulnerability then it takes less stress to make you ill. worth bearing in mind that childhood trauma is often a factor which increases someones vulnerability if you feel like saying some people are mentally weak.
