My Story

I have lived with Clinical Depression for 23 years.
Now I am writing about it.

Depression is not just a mood, a weakness, or something a person can decide their way out of. I know, because I have been dealing with it for 23 years. Everything here comes from that: a memoir of my breakdown, the plain answers I needed when nobody had them, and the research that finally explained it.
