True

EDIT: Actually, I'll qualify that because I can point to specific work related causes. But once you're susceptible the triggers can be very minor (or seem it to others)

Before I start, I'm not having a pop at you in any way Paul. I spread love, peace and a generally warm feeling (though that might meam I've drunk too much).

I think Damien makes a valid point about the term 'depression'. It's a debased term now because people do think it's about being down but it's not really like that. Can't eat, sleep and do many normal things. It is difficult to understand without having suffered it I think (but I think too much )
