Thats such an ignorant comment, and I hope the OP disregards it.
Clearly you know nothing about depression, mental illness or are even empathic to its notion.
@OP
YOU have been very brave to post your thoughts / current state of affairs on an open forum, I hope that you will now take the initiative and seek help from many that are in similar circumstances, there are lots of forums online that you can share which are more targetted towards getting you up where you belong.
Dont give up.
You are at the cusp of a new beginning.
Bullshit. Too many "depressed" people on benefits in the UK, because working for money is "depressing" Never depressed on giro day though. A very fucking convenient excuse for many.
