Having "suffered" with depression for years and finally deciding to throw away the meds, change my attitude and move on with my life, I have been PERFECTLY FINE for over 4 years now. I had given over to the trend in this country that everyone must have a mental disorder. I blamed everything from the weather to my childhood for my "depression."

Dr. Adams,
This is terrible news. Your column is the first one I look for on TH. I have long praised you for never being afraid to say exactly what you think, and exactly what is RIGHT.

May God bless you.
