She seems to have everything that makes a successful life - nice home, no money worries, husband, children, friends, family, job and hobbies but I've noticed she's putting on a "show"! Everyone who knows her says she's adorable, funny, clever, gorgeous etc.The trouble is that she let slip she feels as if she's a waste of space and shouldn't be here. She's always happy and smiling in company but on her own she is tearful, low and can't see the point in tomorrow. I discovered she's been on anti-depressants for nearly 20 years and has been hospitalised for suicide attempts. She tells everyone how happy and lucky she is all the time so why do I get the feeling she is pretending just to keep us at bay? I've asked her if she wants to die and she says "Don't be daft! I just cry a lot!" but I don't believe her. Is it possible for someone to be born a depressive and is there a cure? She seems to be hanging on to life by the skin of her teeth! I'll never forgive myself if she ends her life.
