Depression history

Depression the word which caused the greatest impact on the whole human society is a disorder which is usually characterized by gloominess,fear of new things,lack of self confidence and  so on.The worst thing about this disorder is you will never know you are slipping into the black hole.Unless and until you are educated in medicine or you have a fair knowledge about depression.The case is far ever the worst of all known disorder in mankind.My words may frighten you but I intend to speak the truth as truth alone helps in delivering you from the clutches of depression.Depression the word itself gives a new meaning of pressing you downwards making you feel down.I have seen patients whose IQ were reportedly high were able to tell their own situation of how much miserable they feel whenever they feel depressed.They come out of it more quickly than their counterparts the illiterate.They know where they are progressing.The history also reveals the same result again and again.
When we turn back the annals of history I can see people legendary figures,worst of all  kings and queens,the state heads,the church representatives,War lords,Dictators are some of the eminent historical guys who have actually suffered from depression.Biblical people and bible characters on and off suffered from depression.Depression is thinking worisome things again and again till it becomes a habit of nature.You will forget all the other things gradually.A normal depression can start and can manifest in you for even years.It is like the iceberg situation.You wont even know you will be soon becoming a depressed guy.When the habit of nature takes over you completely.You will not respond to any other thing in the world.
In bible great persons like King Saul had depression.There are biblical evidence that King Saul the anointed one by God had severe depression,that he appointed one musician to drive away his bad worried feelings which took him gradually into depression.Depression is the most innate skillful culprit who can drug you with your worries and can take you down to the black pit of depression.
