"It's a strange poverty of the English language, and indeed of many other languages, that we use the same word "depression" to describe how a kid feels when it rains on his birthday, and to describe how somebody feels the minute before they commit suicide."
Andrew Solomon, TED Talk Depression, the Secret we Share.

I don't remember a time when I didn't have major depressive disorder. Not only did I learn some important new information from this video, I received something I didn't realize I needed so badly: validation.
Thank you for also addressing the semantics of words like "depressed". I often get asked why I'm depressed and then I realize they don't know what I'm talking about.
Thank you for this. Sincerely.

Damn, as a MD I really envy the students in this class and wish my teachers were this good. He managed to convey a great summary of the literature of depression in such an easy way to understand for even a layperson and with great eloquence. This was an amazing lecture and I'm thankful this is free for anyone to watch
