Martin Gibson,

It is entirely appropriate that IRNS has sought the support of some of those here who he or she trusts and who have also fought The Black Dog.

The advice, including thgat from from yourself, has been an almost universal "seek good medical professional support".

Seeking the empathy and support of those who have also similarly suffered is, however, entirely natural, understandable and positive.

Since you yourself say that you are not a sufferer, perhaps you do not understand this basic need of the human psyche?

Respectfully,
