This post is meant for anyone suffering from Depression. Ill try to keep it brief, but thats not very likely to happen. And I hate TMI on a public space, but this issue is too important for me to sweep under the rug, hide behind the books, which cover the OTHER books tucked behind the shelves. We cannot do this anymore. Ive had very few epiphanies in my life...Im not particularly religious or spiritual, but the death of Robin Williams hit me, as it did so many millions of other people, very hard. Of course I didnt know him personally, but beside the fact that the world lost one of its greatest, most breathtakingly gifted, and seemingly kind person, the bigger question is Why? I suffer from Depression..and Depression (kinda stupid name for a medical diagnosis) is NOT some feeling on a spectrum between Super Happy and Sad. No one who suffers from it can chose to simply snap out of it, or just be stronger, anymore than someone with cancer can cure themselves with Positive Affirmations. I just want to take this sad opportunity to start, in my own personal way, a discussion about how deadly this disease...and it IS a brain disease, can be.
