I was born with Major Depressive Disorder in 1946, and had it annihilated by Paxil in 1995. So I saw life through a Depressive's eyes for nearly fifty years. Post depression, I realize that Depression, (for me at least) was the abscence of the rose-colored view of Reality that supports survival of the species. I am now able to don the rose colored spectacles in the moment without awareness of the unfiltered view bringing me down.
