Default Depression and flying

In a previous article, "Jay Honeck" said:
"Feeling a bit down" is not depression. Coming to terms with the fact
that your brother sadistically beat you, tortured you and worse when you
were 12 to 14 is depression. You don't just shake stuff like that off by
going flying.


Sorry, Paul. I hope you know I wasn't making light of your condition, and I
wish you well.


Thanks, Jay.

I'm still pretty bummed out and angry about the whole thing, but after two
years of therapy (including 2 months of Welbutrin to get over a time when
I wasn't making any progress in therapy) I can say pretty confidently that
I'm not depressed any more.
