Do you believe in depression and anxiety disorders?

According to one of my friends everybody gets sad and anxious it's just a lack of willpower. He doesn't believe in most mental health conditions. What do you think?

I think many people who think they have it don't have it. But those who actually do is different than being down or nervous it's much, much worse. Feeling bad is a normal part of life, feeling unrealistically bad for stuff that shouldn't bother you at all is a disorder.
