these are really great. although TBH... i pretty much understand every single one intimately. :P
the thing is, untreated depression shrinks your hippocampus (coordinator of learning and memory) over time, and anxiety damages your telomeres (area of your chromosomes related to how you age) over time. but the good news is that such damage can be reversed.
so i would recommend to anyone-- search for a solution that works for you, such as supplements, meds, herbs, exercise, yoga, meditation, therapy, sex, a certain music, a private getaway, a supportive group, animal friends, a teaching situation, an artistic expression...... whatever seems to work and hopefully doesn't cause future problems for you.
then if you feel better, do yourself a favor... work to slowly understand yourself and the reasons (external and internal) that cause you depression. over time you will build a powerful friend and student doctor of sorts, able to extend whatever hand they can to you across the toughest moments of the rest of your life.
