Galatians is the best!
Depressing to you, but perhaps you haven't read 2 Corinthians where Paul said he GLORIED in his weaknesses... so again where does depression fit into that? You are interjecting your own thoughts and feelings into the man's story.
You find persecution depressing and stuff, but I hardly doubt Paul did because every time the man suffered the text says at some point he was praising. So no, no depression sorry to tell ya
does this feel good?
11 To the present hour we hunger and thirst, we are poorly dressed and buffeted and homeless, 12 and we labor, working with our own hands. When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we endure; 13 when slandered, we entreat. We have become, and are still, like the scum of the world, the refuse of all things.
if you try to omit the pain, it takes away from the point of the weakness, if Paul just gloried, he would not be weak. lets not go by just half of the equation.
