My cousin said at the sunday's lunch, a month ago, that she was depressed.
And she started to tell us what she was feeling and I could sense that she was really enjoying to talk about her sadness, her "emptiness" and the fact that she "was feeling numb" (linkin park song?).
And all family was startled and worried! And I was like WTF! She has tons of boyfriends and go to parties every week! And a depressed person definitely doesnt uses make up and spend so much time taking care of her hair. SHE IS OBVIOULSY NOT A DEPRESSED PERSON!
And she went to a neurologist (maybe it's cooler than to go to a psychiatrist) and HE SAID THAT SHE WAS ACTUALLY DEPRESSED! And prescribed antidepressants for her.
And now the best part: after 2 weeks taking the medicine she told us at the same table THAT SHE WAS CURED! The medicine cured her depression in just 2 weeks!
And her mother (my aunt) started to say that she had to go to a "neurologist" too, because she thinks she is BIPOLAR! Oh God...
I couldn't control myself and said: "Please, see a documentary called "The Bridge", about people who jump from the Golden Gate Bridge, they interviewed a guy who jumped over the bridge and survived and he is bipolar. The guy never could work or go to college, his father says that when he has maniac episodes, he can't even eat dinner or lunch. Please, you are not bipolar, you just have ups and downs, like everybody else here (*excluding me I thought, lol*)
