Failure? I think not.

Plenty of people suffer from depression and lead
extremely productive lives. I've seen it many times. My wife and brother-in-law are shrinks and they've dealt with plenty of people. The right meds help with any chemical imbalances. Therapy helps with the rest.
To say someone with depression is a failure is meaningless, much like saying someone with one arm is a failure. It just is. What you do with (or in spite of) the disabilaty is what counts and makes a difference.
I really don't understand the original point of this thread other than to incite wild discussions...
