I just thought I would post this link http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006wr3p (or if it doesn't work, go to BBC Radio 2 website / Jeremy Vine and follow the link). A really interesting discussion featuring Dr Tim Cantopher, whose book "Depressive Illness - The Curse Of The Strong" is one I can recommend. The basis of the discussion and the book is that depression (a) happens to people with certain personality traits (b) it is a physical condition that will lift once the nervous system has had time to heal itself and (c) it is possible to recover and remain well. Among the many self-help books that I have read, this is one that I found really helpful.
