Highlighting how depression affects the family as a whole is long overdue. The parents that aren't being treated at all are of even more concern. Those are the families that are really falling through the cracks. Good point, June. Highlighting how depression affects the family as a whole is long overdue.

Whenever my dad gets depressed it does bring the rest of us down with him. You are almost walking on eggshells because on one hand you have no idea what to say to make him feel better, but on the other hand you just want to shake him and get him to snap out of it. He does this a couple of times a year but won't talk to a doctor about it. We have all come to accept that this is just him and he will come out of it, but I do worry that there will be a time when he will not and then none of us will know what to do. You know what?
