Depressed? How depressed were you? A little hacked off with life being unfair, or feeling that everything good in life had been removed from you and there was no chance of it ever being returned? So depressed you lose all interest in art music and all that you consider good in life?

How about being so depressed you just wanted to lie in bed and stay there till you died?

Ever gone to sleep and seen dead bodies, decayed corpses even when you wake in sweat the bodies are still there. Seen friends die over and over again in dreams that just keep coming back and feel you should have died either with them or in their place?

Its a funny thing the mind, it can cope with some heavy duty emotional trauma and bounce right back and then sometimes small upsets can cause it to spiral down into a deep abyss where self loathing is about all its capable of.
