  SanDaj buS vaj 'It 
  The depressed warrior concentrates on his fate (PB)

I imagine that the general Klingon (non-clinical) attitude towards depression would be similar to sadness:

  bI'IQchugh yIvang
  If you are sad, act!  (TKW)


Similar verbs:

'IQ 		be sad (v)
QuchHa' 	be unhappy (v)
belHa' 	be displeased (v)

bel 		be pleased (v)
Quch		be happy (v)
yon 		be satisfied (v)
tIv 		enjoy (v)
