ptrenglish Does "to be vulnerable to depression" here mean "to be easy for us to suffer from/ to experience depression"? In one sense of "easy", yes, but of course it doesn't mean that we can successfully suffer from depression if we just try a little. Rather, it means that it takes very little stimulus to initiate the feeling of depression.
