Fact 2: What about the indecent people who suffer it? Nah, seriously though, no-one is describing it as full blown depression here, hence, post-beer-blues. Its like the 'retarded things you do' thread, don't take everything as face value, look for the real meaning of whats being talked about, not a blind interpretation based on a phrase. Also, Might I add, that depression is in fact a horrible affliction, and a lot of the 'decent' sufferers of such have brought it on themselves, most have not but, sure ya know yourself, there's always one or two isn't there!

Liam Byrne wrote: » Yes, we all "overdo it" the odd time, even me (despite the idiotic posts here suggesting that their benchmark of what's fun is the "correct" one) But we don't overdo it to the point of getting depression or asking advice from strangers on a bulletin board. Your own post said... ....not "crap, I stupidly overdid it last night and had one or two too many". Overdoing it by one or two won't give you depression. I'm not "very disciplined"; I'm just not stupid and I'm mature enough to - roughly speaking - know my limits.

Liam Byrne wrote: » Yawn! Already answered. If it's the type of party where people drink themselves to oblivion I wouldn't be there in the first place. I'd be at a different one where people could hold their drink and knew their limits and could have a laugh the next day without whinging to strangers about their "depression".

Getting "depression" from drinking isn't macho or sensible. In actual fact, describing this self-inflicted bull**** as "depression" is an insult to all the decent people who suffer that affliction.
