I am a pretty happy person and if i am depressed it isnt long before I can turn myself around. I am quite lucky. This is certainly an overlooked problem and needs to be addressed.

Appreciate those sentiments Damien. FYI though, I'm a pretty happy person generally (except when on
some threads here
) but the whole depression/anxiety thing is a bugger cos, like a virus I suppose, it can hit at pretty much any time. And whilst you can be happy as Larry (anyone know why that geezer was so chirpy?) you can end up avoiding situations because you think they might trigger symptoms. That can be pretty debilatating and affect relationships whilst to all outward (and to a degree inward) intents you are happy.
EDIT: Just seen your post #8 - knew that
Cheers!
