Hi,
Thanks for the kind words.
I just wondered if the doctor is right and if clinical depression
can get so bad that people can end up depressed for
12 to 18 months and can end up in hospital.
I didnt know that long term stress and depression can actually
change the chemicals in the brain so depression becomes
a physical illness. I guess I never thought of it that way.
I was against medication (I am not a pills will fix everything person)
but from what I was told not doing anything now can mean things
get worse in the future for the person sufferring the depression
may end up in hospital. This truly is a nasty illness.
(Counselling and medication are recommended)
