According to some sources, both Frost and his mother suffered from depression, but there is no record of his having been diagnosed. He had a sister who was hospitalized for mental illness, as well.
Depression is not uncommon among artists, especially poets.
A different perspective:
It is shameful and jaw droppingly so, that depression is actually considered a mental illness. While it is true that artists, especially poets do suffer from depression, almost everyone at some point or another does. Depression is often times a natural reaction to the trials and tribulations of life. Most hospitals today will administer "anti depressive" drugs to patients who have suffered from heart attacks, are suffering from cancer, AIDS, and a number of other illnesses because of the depression they go through.
It should be noted that only a few years ago the Food and Drug Administration made requirements of the pharmaceutical companies that hawk these "anti depressive" drugs that they place a warning label on many of these drugs that the drug itself may lead to suicide. Understand that, a drug supposedly manufactured to handle depression may lead to suicide! In any sane society this would be considered insanity. If one has just had a heart attack or been diagnosed with cancer how is it possible that any depression that follows be considered a mental illness? To suffer some form of depression after a doctor has just informed you of your very real mortality, depression seems a very natural reaction. That some people can struggle with depression all of their lives, most people choose not to. Choose not to, meaning they decide to be happy. Then, once that choice is made, just like that as if with the snap of a finger, their so called "mental illness" is cured.
That Frost suffered from bouts of depression is well documented and indeed he committed his own little sister to a mental hospital but Frost was a poet of the highest order and this is what he should be remembered for and if one must know he suffered from depression would that it be considered simply depression rather than some "mental illness" proclaimed so by the suspect "medical" practitioners of psychiatry.
