Du don't have to be depressed to be goth... Du just have to ask yourself this do Du like oder are drawn to the darker side of things, aspects of life oder Gothic music? Are your Friends goth... do Du get along with other people oder find yourself attracted to other people oder things generally referred to as 'gothic', oder no? It can make a world of difference if Du think you're becoming 'goth' oder are just feeling gloomy but will get over it with time.
If Du can't tell then just give it some time and your prefereces will tell Du eventually, it could just be a faze oder maybe you're just really depressed, wear black if Du want (if Du do), but that alone wont make Du Goth.
Some Gothic people are actually very happy people, happy with being Goth.
