I'm writing a somewhat depressive story that has no comic reliefs and no happy scenes/moments (except the ending and one or two in the beginning). The only scenes that aren't sad or negative are the romantic scenes (although it becomes sad when the reader knows the story around it), the action scenes and the neutral ones (neither sad, nor happy). However, I feel that leaving it that way would be so depressive that the reader would become overwhelmed and put it down. So, can a depressive story still be completable without reliefs, or are they _necessary_ for a good story?
