[quote=cedartree;2486567]Do you believe the origin is biological (simply a chemical imbalance in the brain) or do some of you believe the origin is strictly spiritual, meaning an evil spirit is causing this phenomenon?

It frighterns me that you could think it was anything evil. I am so sorry that somewhere you learned this, I feel like I want to wrap my arms around youand give you a big hug.In true clinical depression which I have, it is purely biological......no evil spirits......just a chemical imbalance...like having diabetes or cancer...its an illness only, and no evil spirirts live in the bodies of people with cancer, or diabetes etc, or in the person that has depression.

I am deeply sorry that somewhere you heard or learned that evil is rsponsible for an illness that is depression!
