Clinical Depression is a condition where a person’s brain does not make enough of certain chemicals called neurotransmitters. No one knows why it seems like more people are suffering from it. It could be higher awareness, or it might actually be on the rise. If it is on the rise, it could be environmental or cultural. It is really that bad. In very bad cases it is fatal through suicide. Everything seems to hurt in some way. Nothing is enjoyable.
I am fortunate. My treatment is mostly effective. For some people, finding the right combination and amounts of drugs is very difficult. Everyone I know with depression would love to feel good enough to go to work.
