Forgot to mention that you look very hot. If you were my lady, I'd treat you well. My wife has depression, me a bit too. But I have mastered it. I just take it day at a time. Screw success, money and the like. Just live, be happy. Read alot and Cancel TV. That's a biggie. Makes you feel better. More in control. The world is a bad place. micro your life and live it for you.

Depression = fallen state of humanity. Depression is not a sickness that only you deal with. Everyone deals with it in some form. If they say they don't, they're a liar. No one has perfect, stable, supporting relationships. No one has perfect brain chemistry. No one has anything perfect and so everyone battles "depression". It is not any more a sickness than being a human being is a sickness. Just thought I'd get that out there. I hate thinking of my depression as a sickness to "get over"....

@NoorminAllah ur saying that religious ppl are mentally ill and thats why they believe what they believe ?? to help them with their mental illness?..as i said depression is a brain illness it has nothing to do with souls..souls arent even scientific entities...and ur saying if ppl cant find happiness in ppl or things then they should invent imaginary ones and call them religion? i wonder how can someone love something that doesnt reply words or reply love...

@lefthandovRA In every mental institution in the U.S. there is a twelve step program. And that program encourages people to seek out help from a higher power. The Quran speaks straight to the soul that which is in need-hence depression. It's not just a problem of self esteem.You see many times people try to find happiness in people or things, but these don't fill the void that is there. People let you down and material things-no matter how much you buy you only want more and are never happy.
