The story discusses the pervasive issue of depression, which is increasingly common in today's world. The author shares personal experiences and observations from counseling family, friends, and others who have faced depression during stressful times like exams, financial crises, or personal losses. Minor depression can resolve on its own, but major depression poses serious risks, leading to feelings of insecurity, loss of interest in life, and in extreme cases, suicidal thoughts or aggressive behavior. Victims may isolate themselves, experience sleeplessness, and avoid food and social interactions. The author emphasizes the importance of an introspective approach, akin to self-counseling, as a potential method for overcoming depression. While this method can be effective, it is suggested that it may be more easily navigated by intellectual individuals, though others can still find success with effort. The author recalls a psychology book from the 1960s that offers further insights but cannot remember its exact title.
