I remember a psychiatrist once asking me whether I had a cold. I thought how weird, being physically and mentally ill at the same time.
Do you know I never even thought of depression as being a mental illness, for a long time and this was despite having seen a psychiatrist for my very first batch of it... but it is very much a mental condition. In fact they call it "the common cold of psychiatry"..!
Get well soon...!
