How do more primitive organisms with some brain matter (ie animals) deal with depression, anxiety, catastrophic events, etc? Do they just.. go to the next thing, or what?

Yeah pretty much. The need for survival doesn't allow them to sit around moping

they don't
you can induce learned helplessness in animals
same as depression basically
then they just stay in that state until environment changes for the better for long enough

Basically yeah. That's why they only really get depressed in captivity where they have nothing else to do
