What was your life like before depression?
Mine was pretty peaceful. I loved sitting inside on the computer and play video games and eat candy. I had few, but good friends. I almost never went out with them. We would only visit each other and play video games. Middle school started, some time went and I fell deeply in love with my teacher. She had long, brown hair and glasses and she was the nicest woman I knew. My depression hit me the last semester of 10th grade, aka the last semester with my teacher. Even if I was down, I would feel better knowing I would see her the next day. I still have feelings for her, but right now I got nothing to lift me up the way she did. I just wanna be happy again.

I had one, very close friend with whom I've been talking 24/7 on skype, and did random shit all the time (usually getting into trouble). Good times.

I remember being miserable all throughout school, so I don't know if that counts as before depression. I wasn't formally diagnosed with it then, at least. I was young, I didn't worry about wasting time or getting old or being places I didn't want to be, I just played with my mommy and watched TV and ate chicken nuggets and played video games. My mom tells me I was happy then. I don't remember everything about those times, but I bet I was a lot happier.
I don't remember really, I've been severely depressed since about elementary school.
I remember being a relatively happy kid, my parents tried very hard to give me whatever I wanted despite not being rich or anything, but I always felt a bit distant from other kids. I was obsessive about subjects most kids (let alone people in general) didn't care about, whenever I would make a friend they would get bored of me quickly or slowly push me to the outside of their circle. As a result I spent a lot of time at home on the computer, watching movies, or playing with toys. I was the quiet and curious type, and an information sponge. That didn't help me in school though, even before I got really depressed I was always a problem student. Lessons always felt too slow paced and I'd completely ignore schoolwork, though I'd never cause problems in the classroom. Because of all this everyone thought I'd turn out to be some kind of genius. Joke's on them, now I'm a 22 year old neet who sleeps 18 hours a day and spends all their time playing videogames, jerking off, and taking benzos.

I can't even remember life before depression. I've been this way since I was very young..

I think you mean, "what was your life like before someone diagnosed you with depression?" At that point you were basically given the right to feel sorry for yourself all the time.
Depression is a meme.
