Depends on your definition of 'sane', really.
Honestly...some people can't take life and respond badly, for the most part. And, it seems to just build and build. Therefor, the only, sensible, way out is to kill themselves.
Some sane, depressed, people, just really need to be taken aside and hugged and helped, once in a while to feel better. Otherwise, yes. They ARE, indeed, sane.
...Just feeling like the world is dealing them some aweful stuff, at the time.
...I really hope that wasn't confusing. XD

"Can I just die right now?" Have you ever felt this way? If so, why?

Do you think there is any event that would cause you to consider committing suicide?

If you think suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, then what do you say when somebody has a permanent problem?

But someone who is suffering not just from momentary sadness, but real clinical depression, will very likely have neurological issues that affect the way they think and react; something that could not be said about non-depressed "sane" people.

Well, think about it. If all they need is affection and someone to help them find the purpose in their life, and, they've needed it for a very long time, it can become a bigger issue than momentary sadness.
And, it could get to the point where they feel so lost, without that help and affection, that they suddenly don't feel a part of the world, anymore. That can mess with your head, quite a bit, but, it's curable without professional therapy and medication, because, it didn't start from a physical affliction.
And...wow. I'm blabbing. Um...sorry.
