one of our brothers here has confessed that he has been fighting depression for years.
while this may seem out of place in a manufacturing forum the impact of depression must have a large dollar value assigned due to lost productivity.
my family on my mothers side has a history of depression and as i get older sometimes i get so down i wont get out of bed for a few days, not asleep just bummed out for no good reason. ive even thought of committing myself to see if i could find out the cause and pursue a cure, kinda like the guys in "One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest" but that would affect my liscenceing so thats not possible.
so heres my question without being too personal.
how many of ya'll suffer from and treat depression?
my wife, bless her heart, doesnt believe in depression and says "Just get out of it" its not that easy, for me anyway.
so what say ye?...jim
