dealing with depression part 1

not what but who

depression is not so much a thing as it is a who...by that i mean it virtually has a mind of its own...it has many symptoms...only some of which will infiltrate the pesonhood of a particular individual...that is to say...it will discern what your weakness is...then attack...for example...odds are...depression will never manifest itself as lack of sex drive in the body of a thirteen year old boy...mood swings are very common at that age...therefore...it is more than likely that this will be one of the key symptoms within the child .

the bottom line is this....depression is your enemy...and in order to defeat your enemy...you must first understand how and where it is going to attack...you cannot fight what you cannot see .
