PlummMeanGreen · April 18, 2007

From yesterday's Fort Worth Star Telegram...

(1) Talking about dying or disappearing or self-inflicted harm

(2) A devastating recent loss, be it of a loved one, a friend, a job, a home or religious faith

(3) Dramatic changes in personality

(4) Dramatic changes in behaviour

(5) Insomnia or oversleeping

(6) Changes in eating habits, be it anorexia or overeating

(7) Suddenly diminished sexual interest

(8) A strong fear of losing control or losing one's sanity

(9) Very low self-esteem

(10) Extreme pessismism

.............................................................................

One never knows when he or she can help a relative or friend recognize such symptoms of which our medical community can do many things today to dramatically help someone suffering from any or all of the symptoms of depression.

Jimbo, here are 10 more signs of depression that the FWST missed:

1. Your wife wants you on the Jerry Springer Show....something about midgets/dwarfs.

2. Your doctor calls you on your cell phone and says something about being tested positive....then your cell phone goes dead.

3. Blood in your urine.

4. Your new cell phone number was once the gay & lesbian hot line and you still get calls/messages.

5. That big glob of green stuff you thought was guacamole was really wassabi.

6. Three months after you appeared on the Jerry Springer Show your wife has twin dwarfs.....and.....you did not know she was pregnant

7. You try to board a plane at DFW and the TSA has you on the terrorist watch list as Mohammed El-Akbar, the #6 man, behind OBL. You can never fly again.

8. You get hit in the groin by a flying green tortilla @ the first UNT home game. Nine months later your wife gives birth to another dwarf.

9. You accidently hit attorney Jim "The Texas Hammer" Adler's car and he looses a leg.

10. Two SMU students move in on either side of you in your neighborhood.
