MnanahEireann: Yes, It is an illness, anyone can get it. There doesn't have to be a reason, its not just feeling down because a pet died, or a poor exam result, or boredom, or death of a family member, or not getting a desired job, or life not turning out as expected. It has no reason. It can hit a person for no reason whatsoever, so telling someone to cheer up, or take up a new hobby, or pull themselves together is no use.
Its a chemical imbalance in the brain. We don't know everything, and everyone is different. Sometimes pills work, sometimes they don't. Sometimes one pill works and another type of pill doesn't. Sometimes it trial and error till the right pill is found. But sometimes pills don't work. Sometimes counselling works on one person but doesn't work on another person.

Its complicated and we are still learning.

I have known people who suffered from it. I know someone who went through a period of anxiety and depression about ten years ago and Prozac worked wonders. That person made a full recovery pretty quickly and now there are no signs of it at all. I know another person for whom no pill seemed to work, and went through misery for years trying everything.


Am not so sure about the chemical imbalance in fairness Mna.
It's what Psyciatry is built on, correcting a chemical imbalance. Yet there is no base line to test off as we are all different.It's really trial and error when it comes to medication and the Pharaceutical companies flouting of the rules and their advertising a 'happy' life does not help matters.
As you say its complicated but at least health services are taking a more holistic approach to the treatment and its moving in the right direction.

One thing is for sure, depression and mental ill health has always been around.

In cases where a pill has made a difference (and there really are such cases) then it is a chemical imbalance. I have seen this with my own eyes. .and its not that the person becomes addicted or gets a high, they simply become normalised again and capable of dealing with normal day to day life where before they were not capable of normality. Its not the cure for everyone but for some it is and is worth a try. For those for whom this is not the answer its more complicated and unfortunately these are the ones whose suffering is prolonged trying all the different methods

It has become out of control with these celebrities, they look down on everybody and insult the people who make them filthy rich...

Just goes to show why we shouldn't idolise these people , based purely on a fictional character they portray.

Looking from the top of their ivory towers the world and the life definitely are not what we, the "mortals" see...
They kind of feel chosen to speak on our behalf, ignoring the reality...
Just like this idiot Lily Allen did, yeah, Katie Hopkins was right, she should stick to her drugs, whiskey and "career"...like many others of her kind...

She was absolutely right.

How childish of Trump to respond in a tweet that she is an over rated actress. She is a most brilliant actress and he does not have the ability to respond to anything without putting someone down

If someone constantly puts you down you have the right to respond equally...
The man hasn't started his presidential work yet...
An intelligent, mature person will speak after not before something is done...
She is a good actress and she should stick to her acting...

Only he didnt respond "equally" he responded with a childish retort. A president should be above such a tweet.

Not president yet but already shown no diplomacy skills.

She is not a 'good'actress she is the definition of a Brilliant actress

She is a great actress and her speech is beyond her acting, out of humanity. Although,some will not like it because it does not fit their agenda and they are already worshiping Trump.

Humanity? Overused and misused word...especially on here...
Not everybody likes what she said..., and doesn't have to worship Trump to dislike her speech...

"Not everybody" isn't "nobody" Life, don't look for a peach under an apple tree...
Why do you think everyone should agree with what she said?
Some people seem to be very good at scaremongering...
Disabled people? Are you sure? Where are your facts? Or it's just a gossip?

Yes we do. I never said you don't have a right to your opinions. Streep also has a right to express hers. I totally agree with her that Trump is the wrong choice for president of the US and its disgusting how he mocked a journalist because of his disability. I will never have the audience of Streep but will always express my opinion nevertheless and if I had her audience I would do the same. Its important that people continue to express opinions and journalists continue to report on everything Trump says and does as with any president

Its not gossip! He mocked a disabled journalist it was seen publicly. He is a well known american journalist and trump mimicked his speech and arm movement mocking him.

I wonder how she knows what Trump will do and predict his failure?
Nothing wrong to speak out your mind indeed...
Trumps said he didn't mock the disabled journalist...
If she wants to do something for the country she should get involved in politics...
Medias seem to choose carefully what they "express"...
