Ugh. As someone who lived through their own bout of serious depression lasting for many years (and who still deals with minor depression issues almost every day), this was the best insider's look at depression I've ever come across. Might be useful to point people who just don't get it at this:

I know my own mum very much had the "Just buck up and get over it" attitude (living in another town she never saw the effects on me first-hand) until one day she called while I was having one of my lower points and I literally couldn't form coherent words, let alone sentences. That was the point at which she realized it really was actually something that impaired my ability to do things, right down to my ability to talk at times, and started to look into it more, and discovered it actually wasn't just all in my head or whatever. Wish I could have showed her "Adventures in Depression" back then!
