Worse case scenarios are that people with MDD will harm themselves or others. In other conditions I have had the unfortunate experience of having friends with aches and pains try and tough it out and not seek medical attention. In those cases those aches and pains turned out to be treatable cancers that were left to long. They are no longer with us. Same dif. Alex.

Although having depressed mood is a symptom. Anti-depressants do work. MDD and bi-polar depression run in my family so I have experience beyond my own. MDD is an extremely serious condition and approximately 15% of those suffering with it commit suicide. There is no reason that "you may need to live with it". Please seek treatment. Too bad there isn't a treatment for stupidity and ignorance. Alex would surely benefit. Alex,
