The solution to Depression is to get High Grade Medical Supplies. You’ll need to craft it at a Medieval Medicine Workbench, which is unlockable at level 12 in the Technology menu, and scrounge together five Ingots, five Horns, and two Bones.

That shouldn’t take too long, but what will take a while is actually crafting the High Grade Medical Supplies. Just remember all that time your Pal spent working for you, though, and you’ll get over it pretty quickly. Once that’s done, grab the item, take it to the Pal who’s feeling a little blue, and hit the “Open Menu” button to administer it. If the Depressed Pal is in your party, all you have to do is open your inventory and select the right Pal to finish the job.

What Does Depressed Mean?

Depressed in Palworld means that a Pal is dealing with a negative status that will cause it to work slower and get tired more easily.

If you see that your Pal is suffering from Depression, you probably feel like you failed them, but don’t worry – you now know how to tackle the issue.
