Mama, I was one of those people who once thought people could snap out of depression. Then God humbled me. I was in a car accident and suffered for over a year with shoulder pain. During that time I became clinically depressed. I took the dreaded anti-depressants which worked like a charm for me. Took the first bottle, didn't get the RX refilled because I'd been cured. Days later, I was back in the dumps. Back to the drugs.

Boy did I learn a lot that year. Now I have tremendous compassion for people who suffer from depression, and I know quite a few men and women, who I hope I've helped through the years, who also suffer. It ain't no picnic. That's for sure.

I'm sure your voice on this topic had helped many. Have you read Eagle's book?
