Its a general word used by the people. Depression in medical terms called as clinical depression which needs medicine and supportive therapy to deal with. In general every one has mood swings and it is common. Too much of mood swings has to be evaluated. So when you are low, try to feel that you need to come up voluntarily. I think this will help you.
