[Update 6/13/2018: This is now a dead link. The Sept. 27, 2010 "card" was replaced with a different topic in 2018, and in a delicious irony, the topic was "True Identity"]

Depression and Loneliness
Who needs your help?
Depression is cited by the World Health Organization as a leading contributor to the "global burden of disease". Depression is a major human problem. Many of us have suffered from depression at some point in our lives and some of us contend with chronic depression too. Most of us know someone who is depressed. We can help.
"Depression is closely associated with a lack of self-esteem, depression is our refusal to go on in life after experiencing a loss, a shattered dream or a major disappointment"

You've lost your good figure, man. Are you comfort eating? This vid is depressing......hows your sex life with all that blubber....? I'm serious- maybe this is a sanity issue for me, eh? that I like to be healthy...? like the health experts say that the western world has an obesity issue caused by overeating, while millions starve? Now isn't THAT depressing?
