Don't get me wrong, I do feel for her. But celebs talking about depression and pain when it's a pandemic among the overworked, under-paid poor workers of this nation who are drowning in debt and reaching up for a float to find it's made of lead...

@SP-uz3yb No worries deleted mine too. Bugs me that celebs complain about depression when single mothers, the disabled, the homeless, the debt-ridden and the overworked, underpaid in Britain have to put up with depression as they have no time to 'Find themselves', 'Take a break at a spa or weekend retreat' or 'Connect'. They're too busy having to do housework, change nappies, make packed lunches for kids, and don't have the money. They have to go to work to pay the bills and deal with their depression alone...

@SP-uz3yb I have suffered from depression for over 30 years also, at 51 I've learned to accept it and even to consider it a badge of honour. Depression in my opinion is a natural reaction to the world in which we live for any decent person with a good understanding of modern times. While money can't cure it having options that money provides and not having to work 12 hour shifts while worrying about overwhelming debt is a big help. Not to mention that many causes of depression in a consumer-led society is money.

@Tao_Tology You missed the point and misinterpreted my comment. My point is that she has money and far better options than the millions of disabled, debt-ridden and homeless that have no choice. A lack of money is a primary factor in depression. As is stress and lack of sleep from working min wage jobs, including 12-hour shifts. Thanks for your pedantry though, it's always nice to see the traditions of taking offence vicariously, pedantry and pettiness still triumph on social media...

@Tao_Tology lol patronising much? goes well with your entitled pedantry and arrogance. Assumptions should be limited to those with the cognitive ability to make them. You obviously lack the reasoning skills to interpret language in context and would rather spend your life attacking other people's opinions than making your own comments. I've made myself clear on a few comments where I stand, feel free to read those comments and then think about why I'm not going to peddle idolatry for celebs when there are millions suffering far worse that the media ignore...
