why do we have so much depression in the world?
I am not just talking about the new depression that everyone is suffering from due to this recession, but depression its self. What causes it and what can we do to over-come it.
Thank you in advance

Hi Deer,
Depression comes from a variety of things. If you don't get enough sun, it can make you depressed.Doctors call this "S.A.D.D." They encourage you to get outdoors more,etc You should ask your Dr. about it.
We have so much pressure in our lives to just keep a head.
Also,thinking negative thinking will depress you.
I find when I am depressed,I enjoy doing some gardening.It's soothing and relaxing.
You could take up a new hobby.Learn a new skill. I think one of the best ways to help overcome depression is to volunteer your services at a soup kitchen or at a school to help w/ the breakfast program.Maybe help out at your local hospital.
When we are helping others our thoughts of depression are not so bad.I wish you well.

Part of mass depression is caused by the chemicals in our food.
