The repetitively singular nature of your comments indicates that you have no real comprehension of the nature of clinically diagnosed depressive illnesses or the acknowledged negative social and psychological ramifications for people living with them in everyday life, or those trying their best to "fit in" with people around them in the office or school, or in the street.

In my humble opinion, each of your three quoted comments, above, have been nothing more than a cheap soapbox for you to expound many of your personally-held gripes. You've managed to introduce Hitler, gun laws, Communism, attacking ambos, police being spat on, racism, a "gutless" younger generation, today's men are "not real men", Australia is a "cesspit", and drug dealers.

I'd therefore appreciate it if you could think a little more carefully before posting any further comments to this particular thread, and if you do post, could you please show a little empathy with people such as myself—and others here—who are suffering from a mental illness, whatever its nature or degree. I've enjoyed reading the other members' comments thus far, and I thank them for being so upfront and honest. On the other hand, most of your comments seem to be aimed at what you perceive as broader issues troubling the modern world, and they're issues that frustrate you in that you don't have any answers.

I'm more than happy to respond constructively to your further appropriate and non-confrontational comments regarding depressive illnesses, but again would appreciate your considering at more depth the words you post. Thank you.
