    Great review!
    And agreed–sometimes I think authors slap the “depression” label on an MC when, if an MC is going to get over it so quickly, it would be more apropos to use the term “wallowing” or extended wallowing. Wallowing in grief/sadness is WAY different than actual, clinical depression (which is a genetic trait handed down via DNA and will be a life-long struggle to control).
    ** And I’m not slamming the authors who do this. Quite possibly, the ones who label the wallowing as depression do not realize the difference.
