It could be a fault on their part, or one on the part of a friend or subordinate, but they would blow it all up and make a scene. Anyone watching closely ought to be able to tell and start to find a way to do something about it. That’s right. Don’t just look and do nothing. Help them in any way you can. Let them know that failure is not a person, it’s just an event that will surely pass. Tomorrow holds even better promises than yesterday did.
A major depression could cause you to experience extreme emotional pain, and sometimes for no just cause. You have to be careful here because it could result in you beginning to consider or attempt suicide. It's a thin line, but one you don't have to cross.

I know the past might be very hurting, but you could be missing out on so much joy and happiness in your future, if you think of suicide right now.
An event has got to be some kind of interaction between stressful goings on in your life and your biological vulnerabilities to get you down in depression.

In attempting to treat depression over the years, antidepressants have been conjured up that are meant to help you through the various crises you get from this condition. They work by increasing the levels of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine in your system. These are the neurotransmitters that are involved in depression in the human body.
Blaming themselves is something you will find a depressed person doing a lot of the time. Whatever the misfortune, they tend to take the blame upon their own shoulders. Little wonder they are so prone to commit suicide, or at least attempt it. Even if you must blame yourself, it should be to learn the valuable lessons inherent when one makes mistakes. It’s not to constantly beat yourself into the ground. That’s counterproductive.
Negative thinking is a symptom of depression. It makes you see situations as though they are much worse than they really are. Worse still, your depression could increase in such a state of mind, especially if the stressful situation continues.
