Last time I spoke to my mom she called me from a pay phone and we didn't have the best talk. Ever since my stepdad passed away three years ago she has been very depressed and hasn't been herself at all.
Of course I would be depressed sometimes and my Mom would be worried about me because I would just sleep to escape. Cause I was so scared of being a musician or artist or whatever you want to call it.
I like my name. My mom named me after a song by the 1970s group Bread. So it's meaningful and I like the song. It's a love song - kind of - but it's kind of depressing and dark.
Postpartum depression is a very real and very serious problem for many mothers. It can happen to a first time mom or a veteran mother. It can occur a few days... or a few months after childbirth.
When women are depressed they eat or go shopping. Men invade another country. It's a whole different way of thinking.

There's some movies I watch they're kind of like my anti-anxiety pill my anti-depressant pill. I watch them at least once or twice a month probably. And I never stop learning from them as a filmmaker.
No power in society no hardship in your condition can depress you keep you down in knowledge power virtue influence but by your own consent.
If I didn't try to eavesdrop on every bus ride I take or look for the humor when I go for a walk I would just be depressed all the time.
