Well said! We all have different reasons, events, or it just is that way, however the effects depression has on us can be massive to some, minor to others. But for all it is a terrible disease that can ruin live's if not treated properly!

My parents are a psychiatrist and a psychiatric nurse and I know from being around them that many peoples' issues stem from bio-chemical imbalances in the brain. If you can find something that brings you joy and use that then you are on the road to recovery but some people need medicine to fix the chemical imbalance. A friend who struggles with depression runs 10 miles a day to get the massive endorphin dump (aka runner's high) at the end...but most importantly is a group of loving and supportive friends!
