I have a question regarding depression. I know that it can lead to suicidal thinking, but does it ever lead to thinking of harming others? I am dealing with a very depressed person right now that is in crisis. Given the extreme personal nature of my question, and not wanting to invade your privacy, I am hoping some of you will be willing to PM me. Thank you

Ask again tomorrow. I tend to get hungry at least 3 times a day for some odd reason :roll: :lol:

Coffee??? If anyone runs out...We have the same coffee system in our home that Burger King has. LOL We are addicts. LOL
Thank You again Marsye for this topic. I hope it has informed or helped many. I know from experience first hand that there are people out there that just do not understand depression. It is all because they are uneducated about it. A true education abot it. There have been so many new things developed to test & treat this disease in the last 25 years, it is amazing. You know another big thing that triggers me off? People that really are uncaring or cruel to others. Try living with that in this world. A pill doesn't help that, so I have to find creative ways in my mind to help with it. And I do.
We need to all be capable & willing to discuss things. We will never all agree 100% of the time. But can't we agree to disagree kindly or politely? We're adults & quilters do have the rep of being caring & compassionate with big hearts after all. I am new here, but that is my half a cent on this topic. But I am so thankful this was brought up because now I know I am not alone here. Thanks everyone.
Huge Hugs

It does seem that many more cases of things like autism, adhd, add, etc. seem to be diagnosed than I was aware of 60 years ago.
Are the percentages of these conditions more prevalent now than "back then" - or are our diets and life styles causing more of these condition?
