Depression is an illness that can change the very core of our being.
The way we relate to the world and even our perception of who we are may be affected because of the pervasiveness of depression. One may enter a personal world where perspective disappears, emotions are drained and there is no guide for making decisions. It is a colorless life without meaning and motivation. One of the most upsetting factors of depression is the desperate feeling you have that there is nothing, or no one, to stop your downward fall. You don't know where you can turn for a net to catch you.
