Hello...

You put down your thoughts so well...

In answer to your question, it took me almost 14 years to realise that my dpression is something that not only can be treated but needs to be treated. I think i first began feeling depressed when i was 15, I have sought help from my doc but it was only about 4 months ago that i admitted to myself that this was something i do need help with. I'm not going to get over it and i can read as many books as i like - i need to be 'treated', otherwise my depression will continue to get worse and worse - just like most other 'illnesses' that are left intreated.
