Depressive realism
Depressive Realism refers to the tendency of mildly depressed people to make accurate rather than self-serving biases judgments, attributions and predictions. It has been nicknamed the "sadder-but-wiser effect". Depressive realists tend to see things for what they are (normal people tend to view the world through rose-colored glasses). Hence, depressed people see the world glumly.
