Not really, in a developed world the expectations and pressure are high for some and not succeeding feel like a life of failure. It can be hard for people who just want to have a simple life. 

Can you pay your rent? Can you afford food? That's your simple life. Meeting others expectations can be tough. But there is an easy solution, don't give a fuck about what others think or want. Just surround yourself with friends and family memebers who love you for who you are. Support them when they start dreaming big and they will do the same in return if the simple life isn't doing for you anymore.  

I am not saying depression isn't real. But alot of the times, it's self-inflicted. Some behavioural modifications and cognitive therapy can go a long way. 

I am giving you sincere advice, don't let expectations of others pressure you.

Euhm I am totally fine but it is not about me, it is not about what society says that makes people down it is it what it not says or not does. Been talking some time with  girl from Texas who has been working years as a volunteer and helped many people out, she is hurt because when she needed help their was nobody and ofcourse she tried feck everyone I stay alone but that only lead to her feeling very loney doesn't help that her family don't support her choice to study in the direction of art and that her sister does everything well and she feel guilty for it. All she have is some guys on the net who only say 'I care/help' but don't/can't do anything or ask her something in return. Also she says it doesn't help that her parents are mexican immigrants and that doesn't help living in her Region but I can't judge about that myself.
