Hell I have had atrociuos PMS with my Cluster Headaches and there is NOTHING inferior about me 
Not even my sense of modesty which is amazing

PMS is caused by being a physically mature female.
A woman's cycle cannot be helped and I did not mean for my words to imply that it could.
Its symptoms, however, can be
relieved if not alleviated completely.
That was
my point in posting to begin with.
Now, I just don't see where you can sit and coddle others over things that can be helped (like depression) with proper treatment. You're a professional aren't you?
Kiwidoc, I can appreciate that your profession requires people to remain mentally unstable but honestly, if there are no extenuating circumstances (i.e. painful or terminal medical conditions), is it really necessary for people to hold on to all the bad stuff that made them cry to begin with and carry it with them throughout their lives as a reason to remain miserable?
These things can be elimated from our psyches, we just have to be willing to let go and make a change for the better. Before you know it, you have to wonder why you remained so sad for so long. It is a waste of precious time.
And I'll stick by my words that a proper diet is one stepping stone towards reaching a goal of physical and mental healthiness. That is proven medical fact. Don't expect any progress if you are not going to fuel your bodies with what it requires.
Depressed people should never give up hope and think that they will remain that way for the rest of their lives...it just isn't true.
