> I'm wondering if any of you have come up with a useful way of explaining (or not explaining) depression to coworkers.

Greetings to Elizabeth:
Depression is anger and hatred turned inward (toward oneself).
If the individual persists, look at them squarely in the eye and say "Not you!"
IMHO, personal problems should not be so casually shared with those who are either curious or just plain nosey (despite other intentions they may express).
When I'm confronted with such questions, I tell them to look it up in their Funk & Wagnalls (an old "Laugh-In" retort).
