Depression's mysteries, the latest research suggests, reside not only in the circuits of nerve cells that signal between parts of the brain, but in the chemistry going on in the cells themselves. The health of the cells, and their resilience to assault, may be the key to keeping the black dog away." (DALLAS MORNING NEWS) This article describes the latest developments in clinical depression research.Summary: A MELANCHOLY OF MINE OWN -- "When I began psychotherapy late in high school, I had a clear and persistent sense that something was wrong with me, but no vocabulary with which to describe it. I could not draw on contrast because I didn't remember a time when I felt differently or better. I did not have seasons of happiness followed by epochs of misery, or fall off cliffs and climb back up among the daisies. I felt as I felt for as long as I could remember. I did not go to therapy to understand, or to get through, an episode. I needed to understand and get through my life." (PSYCHOTHERAPY NETWORKER) The author describes his battle with depression and provides a brief history of the illness.
