Default Depression and flying

I spent two years without a medical because I took Welbutrin for two
months. Is it any wonder that pilots who suspect that they are

suffering
from depression don't seek treatment?


It truly is a Catch-22 situation, and I'm sure the FAA's current policy

has
made liars out of many hundreds of pilots.

Luckily (for me), flying itself is a catch-all cure for depressions of all
kinds...

I am with ya there Jay, I get depressed when I cannot fly hop in an airplane
and all is good. Oh! I may be passing through Iowa City soon with a
Commander I may be ferrying.
