Identify and Overcome

After the loss of an amazing actor, who touched the hearts of millions though his comedy and films, we remember him for all of the great things he did in his life. Robin Williams will always have a special place in my heart. I grew up with movies like "Flubber", "Aladdin", and "Mrs. Dobtfire." There was always something special that he brought into his roles, a kind of passion that made his characters so lovable.

But with his passing brings up the topic of depression in the media. These topics have anyways been difficult to talk about and people often wish to shy away from bringing it up in conversation. But it needs to be talked about. I recently read an article on a popular site that I wanted to share.

--> Identifying and Overcoming Depression <--

Writer Lisa Winter does a great job of helping the reader understand what depression is and what you can do to help someone you love who might show signs of being depressed.

I can't say it enough. Those who are suffering with depression are not alone. There is always help and a shoulder to lean on. Life is too beautiful to give up on yourself.
