Do you mean "violating a copyright"?

A copyright is the right of the owner of a work to reproduce and publish (copy) that work. It is a legal claim to ownership. It asks for the law's protection of the work against theft, piracy, and plagiarism. It may be the author (originator) of the work or it may be the publisher who claims copyright protection.

Every book that is published has a copyright notice, often indicated by a little c in a circle. Other creative works--films, musical compositions, software, and other kinds of "intellectual property"--have a statement of copyright on them somewhere if the owner wants to protect them.

A copyright notice is kind of like a fence around your property. The fence may not do much to actually keep people out. But it does tell them where the boundaries are, and it tells them that the property owner (you) want to keep trespassers out. They can't climb your fence and walk on your land without knowing that they are trespassing.

If someone takes possession of (steals) work that is owned by someone else and tries to reproduce it or sell it, that is a violation of copyright. That is illegal.

Should someone tell someone that they have no reason to be depressed?

Someone should not tell someone that they have no reason to be depressed if that person is truly suffering from depression. Depression is a debilitating mental illness and often has no apparent cause. People who are depressed often don't have a reason and wouldn't be able to pinpoint one when asked either. Statements like these from a loved one could potentially worsen the depression.
