Question: So many people talking about depression!. Why is this!?
Answers:
Hmmm I think if you think about it in relation to the general population Im sure its not really LOADS of people talking about depression!. Also, this is a "mental" health section so obviously its going to have lots of talk about mental health issues, and depression is a common one!.

Also, I think a lot of people who ask questions about depression arent actually depressed but experiencing a low point in their life or are sad!. This is natural and part of life so there'll be lots of people talking about it!. I think about 50% of the people on here asking questions about depression dont have a diagnosis (some actually state that) and I think will probably never get one!. Lots of people just use this section of Yahoo Answers to "think aloud" and explore why they could be feeling a certain way for example, questions like "Could this be depression!?" or "Am I crazy!?"

I suffer from depression and I dont know many people in "real life" who suffer from it also!. So I think people with mental health problems use YA to connect with others and similar situations to find out things!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

People are out of balance!. We eat poorly, sleep poorly and don't take the time to exercise and have fun any more!. This depletes a hormone in the brain called seratonin (the feel-good hormone)!. This is the cause of depression!.

Doctors like to treat depression by giving you a drug!. This does not treat the problem!. It only treats a symptom and it gives you a ton a nasty side effects to boot!. The withdrawal symptoms of getting off the drug are almost worse than the depression was in the first place!. Some people act out like the killer at Virginia Tech or commit suicide!. He was on anti depressants too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think depression has very much become the disease of the modern age, we live faster, work harder and are pressured into doing more with our lives than every before!. The stock result is people are often asset rich but time poor these days, and quality time with ourselves and our loved ones is what keeps us in good mental health!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
