Is the word 'depressed' being used too often?

These days, I hear people saying "I am depressed" or "I feel depressed" in almost every other dialogue. Do you think people use that term too easily and that those who've felt true depression can be offended?
What are some other words or terms people use casually and frequently which really shouldn't be used, or people should be careful when using?

I think the word depression is used more because people are really more depressed these days....it doesn't have to be clinical depression....one can really feel down and call it depression....in this age our lives are so busy and fast that we are just living it and not enjoying it.....just living and not enjoying can make u depressed.....most of the times we just don't pay attention to our state of mind.......

I think the words that are used casually are 'sorry' and 'thanku'.....I don't think that most of the time people really are sorry or feel thankful but say these just because they are supposed to see it........when the kids are young parents always teach them to say sorry or thanku as part of good manners without actually making them feel those words......but u know sorry can't make a dead man alive😆

The word patriotism, religious, love is also used too sparingly without much depth of feelings.

Well explained.👏 Yeah, I suppose many people do feel depressed more often, but I don't think it's that serious for everyone, is it?
Yeah, def sorry and thank you are overused.😆
