In 2005 I had my worst depression. I went to nursing school at that time, and I loved nursing. I always enjoyed working with people and I found nursing very interesting, challenging and rewarding. I was sure that I had finally found the right job and I wanted to become a psychiatric nurse when I had finished my education. Unfortuneately I became ill, and I had to leave the nursing school. It was very hard for me to accept that I was never going to become a nurse, and I had a severe depression. I sometimes miss nursing, but I have learned to concentrate on other things instead.

For me it was a heart attack. It almost killed me and took me 4 years to get enough health back to do anything more than walk. It was very depressing. I am doing a whole lot better now and even started a garden this year and went fishing more than I have in the past 5 years. It's great to be alive.

When i was five years old my dad hit me over the head with a board. This made me sick, messed up my speech, and made my walking bad. This was a very depressing experience, since it helped to ruin my life.

I loved a girl very much during my college but before I could tell her my love, i came to know that she is already committed to someone else.This made me very depressed and it took me few months to overcome it.but I am not that stupid to give up my life for that...this experience helped me to become emotionally stronger...thanks to that girl....i still love her...

A few years ago I was in a horrible relationship. All he ever did was cheat on me. He took away my self-esteem and my ability to trust other people. For years I was in a deep depression because of the way he treated me and the way he ingrained into my head that I am worthless and unlovable. Now I've met a person who restored my faith in people. He has single-handedly lifted a depression that lasted more than five years.

Worrying living from hand to mouth is very depressing for me.
