RE: MY CLOSE FRIEND NAMED DEPRESSION( Am I better off being dead?)

Genuinely sorry about your experience and kudos for finding the strength to write about it. It is a sign that you are on the right path to healing.

Depression, and mental health generally, are not really considered a thing in our society and it is one of the things that makes our society grow more and more dysfunctional.

More awareness needs to be created and more support given to people with mental health challenges.
