There's depression the feeling, which may be caused by un-live-with-able circumstances and serve as a stimulus to make life changes.

Then there is depression the illness, which and may or may not be brought on by some circumstances, but which is debilitating.

If it's serious enough, I'm not sure if it matters whether it is spontaneous or caused - you need to be brought out of it before you can deal with the un-live-with-able circumstances. Staying in the depression doesn't help you to take action at all.
