Thankyou Hive account@paolamerian for a wonderful post on a hugely ignored topic. I have worked as a Paramedic for the last 15 years and I can tell you that emergency services worldwide are plagued with the effects of depression. I myself suffered (and still do, but to a lesser degree) from PTSD and for some it is a daily battle just to function as a human being, let alone complete complex tasks. Thank you very much for championing the cause and allowing other to open their hearts and minds to sufferers of depressive illness. I wish you all the best in life and in Steemit :) Steve.
