This is my first show. I talk about the different kinds of depression, even though I don't want this to be a medical type podcast; I just thought it was important to clear up how many different kinds there are and that anybody that has any of them, I would love you to come speak with me. After about 11min. I talk about my own experience with major depressive disorder and my ideas on what causes depression.
