I've found this discussion interesting. I struggle with depression (non-clinically diagnosed - but it is what I am assuming is depression) every day. It has had a very damaging effect on my life. In the last few years my behavior has tended to be very angry, self-destructive and such... and I feel powerless to stop it. So this conversation you guys have had has interested me. Thank you to those who have seriously shared their experiences and personal information.
