Thank you. I've seen the effects of severe depression first hand. It's not a matter of just needing to smile more, it's a serious medical condition that requires professional intervention.

To anyone reading this, if you think you're depressed, please seek out a qualified talk therapist (CBT has been shown to be effective in treating depression) and a qualified physiatrist for medication.
