It is sad that depression seems to have become a four-letter word. Too many people are afraid to talk about it or unaware about what depression really is.

Your suggestion about taking up another activity is spot on. When you define yourself by your work it is difficult to ever stop thinking about it. I still have problems putting work to the back of my brain when I walk home every night. I've taken up running and plan to take up airsoft in an effort to expand my horizons beyond just "how do I write that next line of code".
