Update

I’ve updated the Other Depression-based Comics & Games link, now with the added games. The new additions to this page are:

Comics - Generalized Type

Vague Notions is a comedy strip that describes living with depression and anxiety, both personified. By Keer, also a Canadian.

Games

Depression Quest is a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure style game in which “you are given a series of everyday life events and have to manage your illness, relationships, job, and possible treatment.” You can play for free or give a donation. (thanks ChopLogic and notcoolenoughformusic)

Actual Sunlight is an RPG style game about depression and suicide. Unlike most games with which you interact with your world, you find yourself increasingly isolated and your choices limited. Builds are available for download. (thanks Alex Kramer)

The reason for the inclusion of games is because it the creation of games is also an art medium IMHO. If you know of any games that are about depression (in a clear way) please let me know.
