Depression

I have had a problem with depression most of my life. I have also had a great deal of exposure to others with this illness. I lost my father, my first husband, my first father-in-law, and my two best friends to this illness. If you know someone who may be depressed, please take it serious, please try to help. You may not be able to prevent the inevitable, but you must try. Depression can, and sometimes does lead to suicide. You may think, 'Oh, they wouldn't do that'. Take it from someone who has been there,

'They just might!'
