Between mélancolie and nostalgie

 I just discovered recently that there are actually quite a difference between them.

In the past, I almost use the two concept interchangeable. 

But actually Melancholy/mélancolie is more serious and more close to depression. It's more close to a negative sentiment.

Nostolgia/nostalgie, on the other hand seems only refer to the bittersweet feeling when you think of the past. 


However, I always have a feeling that nostolgia is not "negative" enough to reflect that feeling when you look at the things that are lost, that you will never see or experience again.
