I think she was never that depressed and either way she can't afford to feel depressed. That's a negative emotion that attracts Grimm. Same reason why Jaune wouldn't openly mourn any longer. Either they deal with it or become a major magnet for Grimm. That depends on the type of Grimm they may encounter; a young Beowolf or Creep may attack upon sensing a human, but older ones (like those Goliaths in the "Mountain Glenn" episode) know that if they attack a human, more humans will come to attack ''them. ''As Oobleck pointed out in that episode, not all Grimm are mindless. I doubt they'd be stupid enough to keep attacking if dozens of even hundreds of their kin get wiped out, and if they do then they deserve their inevitable fate.

So while reining in their emotions can be beneficial, if done for too long it could lead to them being apathetic, which they can't afford either. But we'll see.
