Is mental health a shared experience?

If you're around happy people eventually you'll be happier?

If you're around sad depressed people you'll feel low and depressed?

It’s that way with some people, but not all. I suspect that clinical depression, which is often chemical in origin, isn’t affected by the moods of others. When I’m in the thick of it, it has to pass on its own and I prefer not to be around others. If they’re cheerful, I just feel guilty.
