The Moaning of Death: Liveline 23/9 forward

My faaaader suffered from severe depression, and what worked extremely well for him was the old fashioned ECT treatment, literally worked overnight and had long lasting effects such that he never got a severe recurrence. It's something I would personally opt for it I became that unwell, IF it is still offered. I also know another person for whom it worked extremely well. It just resets personality, in those for whom it is suitable, back to normal ordinary thinking.

Yes, tell us the places we can go for help, how we can help ourselves in practical ways, discuss the physiology of it (so much being discovered about how inflammation & physical illness causes depression), but endless hopeless stories dragging us all down further doesn't help.
