Re: Depression Chit Chat/Support Thread
Prolonged depression actually altered the physical shape of the hippotalamus. So much that under stress, like a sponge, it would no longer capable of returning to its original state.
This is why sometimes you need help from psychiatrist and not just psychologist. They could prescribe you with a special medication, that is much more powerful than the normal relaxant/anti-depressant, capable of penetrating the blood-brain barrier tissues.
Depressed people need help, not because they dont want to, but because their brain is physically deformed from it.
