h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi everyone! I am a first year college student who is studing psychology. I am doing a research on depression in college students for a course I am taking. I am very connected with this topic, because I too have battled depression since I have started college and also when I was in high school. Would anyone like to discuss this topic with me? I am interested in aspects such as; what causes it, what can we do to overcome it, what can we do to avoid it, helping others and ourselves with this illness, and any other facts and personal stories you may have to contribute. If you would like to help, but the information you would like to provide is personal you may email it to me at [email protected] with a subject heading of "depression". Discussing this topic with others will help me out a lot and it will also contribute to my field study. If you are interested in taking a survey for me please ask, and I will be happy to send it to you via email.

Thanks everyone!
