Long Island Ice tea. Yes! Or a Whiskey Sour. When I was in college, I developed a taste for Whiskey Sours, but didn't feel like going through all the work making them myself. So what I did was poured 3/4 a glass with lemonade, and the remaining 1/4 with Wild Turkey 101...it was close enough to the real thing. |

Around 25% of the population at any one time is dealing with either a short term or long term form of depression. Maybe if people didn't constantly think that someone wouldn't want to fly with them just because of that, or be fearful of losing their job more people would get help. |
Ignorant statement

Just because someone is taking an anti-depressant, doesn't mean they will want to fly an airplane into the side of a mountain. Depression is a complex disease that, in many cases, is easily controlled with medication. Not everyone who has it wants to die. It's unfortunate that people like you don't have a better understanding of the conditions which can be classified as "depression". At the same time, it is fortunate that there are enough people that do have that understanding that allows those people, who are otherwise very good people, to continue to do what they love and provide for their families.
