Depression is an evil killer and i urge anyone having troubles with coping with life to seek help. Beyond Blue is truly a blessing in this country. Even just reading other peoples stories can help in such a big way and let and MAKE you feel like your not the only one going through such things. Then progress to talking to a doctor. These days doctors are more aware of this illness and will help you to help yourself live and cope with life. Once you can get an understanding of what is happening to yourself, the better you will be at being able to read the signs of the highs and the lows. There is no quick fix to this but with little steps eventually you will see an improvement in your outlook and be more competent to tackle lifes hurdles.
